To me its an absurd notion. Life cannot come from non-life. Most Evolutionists these days go with the word Evolution and hawk "Natural Selection" and "Random mutation" , , , My view is that it does not matter what you call it -- the fact remains that , , Evolutionists claim that , , , ~ natural selection and ~ :random mutation and ~ atoms and molecules and ~ chemical reactions and ~ etc etc etc plus unthinking non-intelligent Time plus unthinking non-intelligent Chance plus unthinking non-intelligent Matter , , , , , eventually produced a situation where our ancestors crawled up out of the Primordial Slime or Primordial Soup, at first just a tiny speck, later to become the size of a dime, later to become the size of a golf ball, later to become a Bullfrog or Whatever They Say It Was later to become a Monkey or a Chimp, later to become a "George W. Bush." ____________ Moreover, , , Evolutionists believe that , , , ~ unthinking non-intelligent Time plus ~ unthinking non-intelligent Chance plus ~ unthinking non-intelligent Matter , , , . . . produced a , , , ■ highly complex Human Brain and ■ a highly complex Human Eye and ■ a highly complex Fully Functioning Human Body and ■ a highly complex Earth and ■ a highly complex Universe. and eventually produced a , , , ■ highly complex "George W. Bush" _____________ It takes a lot of Faith to believe all that up there. And my view is that anybody who believes all that up there is a Great Man Of Faith -- this is why I speak about the Religion Of Evolution. Speaking about Faith , , I do NOT say that Evolution is not true. Theistic Evolution may be the way it happened. My view is that it has NOT been scientifically proved that the one-celled speck in the Primordial Slime eventually became "Oprah Winfrey" and "Joe Biden" , , , , but, , , , , Evolution is not a crucial issue for the Christian anyway. Millions of us say Evolutionists have NOT scientifically proved that "George W. Bush" started off as a single-celled speck that "came up out of the Slime" -- but even if they do, one day, prove that it happened that way, So what? Who cares? We Christians will forever believe in the God that created the highly complex Human Person, the highly complex Human Brain, the highly complex Human Eye, the highly complex Earth, the highly complex Universe, and all that exists --- how He did it, is interesting but it has zero to do with our Faith in God , ,, , , , repeat , , , how He did it, is interesting but it has zero to do with our Faith in God , ,, "Have Faith in God."___The Lord Jesus {Mark 11:22} JAG `` 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theistic Evolution is incompatible with Biblical Theology. A genuine Bible believer does not give credence to TE.

Not over millions of years. You would also have to wonder why God would use evolution to create us anyway. It's a weird way to make us and wait out all that time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evolution's literature has a lot of "iffy" language in it. "Iffy" language like , , , ~ if {if so and so is true then , , ,} ~ maybe ~ possibly ~ probably ~ this might be the case ~ this might not be the case ~ but {eg. "but this may not be the case"} ~ and other type "iffy" language clearly demonstrating that Evolutionists are guessing and speculating. There is a lot of Faith in the False Religion Of Evolution. _______________ Also , , The False Religion Of Evolution has many "High Priests" and many of "their followers" and "disciples" present Evolution as a Religion with the same fanatical religious zeal as the most zealous Fundamentalist Preacher as they preach their Religion Of Evolution inside Thread World. They will insult you too -- if you dare question their zealous False Secular Faith Religion Of Evolution -- they will call you ugly names and will call you a Liar and will call you are an Ignorant Fool and worse. Anybody who reads threads inside Thread World on the Internet At Large knows this to be true. JAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps think deeper then. Perhaps more laterally. I was a traveling engineering controls troubleshooter for 40 years. Any small part of a system can spell disaster. A slightly malfunctioning part can be very dangerous. I was involved in creating, mastering and commissioning very large systems. They NEVER evolve. They are designed. They cannot recreate themselves and are fragile to the incorrect touch or procedure. That is just a system made by fallible man. Not a system created by blind chance. If evolution is chance, then how many missteps are made on that path? If you wish to involve God in a 'theistic evolution', how on this earth can you include the Lord High God in our puny ideas on 'how' He did that? Seems the height of suppositional fantasy to assess the Potter's workings of the clay. No human has a big enough mind for that task.

Seems the height of suppositional fantasy to assess the Potter's workings of the clay. No human has a big enough mind for that task. Engineering is not the same as biological evolution. I'm just a geologist, and not a biologist, so I am not intimate with the full workings of the TOE. But I accept that it is the leading theory for the diversity of life on earth. God gave us minds to discover the how. We are curious and look to discovering the how and why. As an controls engineer, why did you bother to understand how electricity works? The fact that He is the Author of creation and all that it entails is good enough for me. I am glad He did not reveal every little bit of knowledge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
