“I told you what my entirely Christian belief was”

No, you’ve consistently refused to tell me why you reject the account of creation in Genesis. If you’re looking to rehash tedious arguments re:Darwinism, there are plenty of sites online where people cut and paste back and forth ad infinitum in silly pissing contests. That doesn’t interest me, though, I prefer Socratic reasoning - using reason and rationale, starting from A to get to Z.

However, I thought you were looking for the answer as to why you cannot be a Christian or a Darwinist, why it’s either/or. If you scroll back you’ll find that was your question. Apparently you’ve abandoned any consistent thought on that and are just flailing about now.

However, since you can’t come up with a good enough reason in your own mind as to why reject the Genesis account, then you must know the rest any of your following reasoning is pretty suspect.
That would cause no end to discomfort, I imagine, as you try to convince yourself it’s not true. but you just can’t escape the doubt - you can’t, because you have no valid reason or excuse for doubting the Creation account. All you’ve done is gotten upset that you were even asked to come up to produce a a solid reason to reject it. Interesting avoidance reaction/defense mechanism psychologically, though.

As I’ve started in several other posts, you continue to dodge. You only recently asked me about Genesis, so that is entirely immaterial to the discussion.
Yon won’t tell me if you believe that ToE (which you inaccurately refer to as Darwinism) addresses the origin of life. You persist in hand waving and in referring to accounts that don’t exist.
You show all the signs of a person of weak faith. That’s OK—I accept that. I’m happy to be a Christian who sees no contradiction in following Jesus and considering ToE as accurate. I do hope that you find your faith, though.
