You might be in trouble. Do you think God in his providence can’t have a bunch of prebiotic molecules come together in unique circumstances with some groupings of others already formed, have it hang around for a while and then just ‘by chance’ combine with some more groupings ‘pre-prepared’ to produce a minimalistic prokaryote? And from there more of the same to a eukaryote?
Um, sorry – I’ve known a couple of atheists who wanted to believe in God, they just refused to have anything to do with a God associated with the “absolute nonsense of YEC and rules, rules, rules”.
Sorry – see above.
And add in the refusal to believe in a God who allows various evils.
And, again, sorry. I’ve met people who were absolutely miserable in life and refused to believe in God for one simple reason: they had prayed and prayed for years for one simple thing – a friend who understood them. Yet not only had no such friend come along, they hardly had anyone they could call a friend.
There was a guy in InterVarsity Christian Fellowship at my university who was like that. His ‘poem’, though, was a song I knew well (though I never understood it till I met him)–
= - = + = - = + = - = + = - =
This is the kind of thing I would hear from shallow Christians who grew up sheltered and never got to know anyone who was really really different.
You cannot distinguish between supernatural miracles and ‘hypernatural’ ones apparently. That’s too bad – the latter are very cool. Ask Maggie or any number of others.
The quantity of your laughter is telling, if you know what that means. (It is whether you do or not. ; - )
Well, you would know all about that … having performed many supernatural and ‘hypernatural’ miracles yourself and having been present when those biblical miracles occurred. LOL
How many reputable theologians support your entertaining ideas about biblical miracles?
Wait, let me guess … it’s somewhere zero and one (but probly closer to zero than one).
(I haven’t read the last one – it could be interesting based on what I’ve learned here in the last… let me check… huh, exactly five years come Monday.)
And based on your diction and mocking self-assurance, I suspect I’ve been a Christian longer than you have been alive. That, and you’re clueless about God’s providence.
