For all the YECs who point out the alleged impossibilities of macroevolution because of this or that, or the odds, or whatever, why can’t you acknowledge that God can step in and work his magic to make them work? Doesn't God get involved in his own creation?

It seems to me you are trying to make YEC work without God, as though you’re trying to push God out of the picture.

Yes, I think that’s what it is. I think you don't really want God around.

There are three sides to every story: your side, my side, and the truth.

God is just a personification of reality, of pure objectivity.

If truth be known, haven't you Iama, created your own god through your idolitry of your Bible? For sure, yours is certainly different than the God of most other Christians.

So you want to have your own created god, eh? That's what I figured. You take God out of YEC so you can control him.


Meanwhile, my question goes unanswered -- why do you not want God to get involved in biology so that he can do his thing?

Funny that you would present such a post...and be against intelligent design.

As pointed out to you on another board...God said He didn't do it that way.



It is quite clear to me that it is you who is forcing God into your beliefs.


God said He formed Eve from Adams rib...you say He didn't.


God said Eve is the mother of all....you say she isn't.


...the list goes on...

Silly, you can't learn any science from your Bible.  If your God is the correct one as you say, then clearly you have misunderstood what your God actually meant cause you've got your science all wrong.  LOL

Yes, we know. God said He did it like this ...

God said no such thing.


That was a bunch of bronze age, goat herders sitting around a campfire, making up fairy tales that you've turned into a "literal and inerrant" ABYSMAL FAILURE.

"creationism" ... 2000+ years worth of ABYSMAL FAILURE ... and proud of it.
