>>I work in IT. I have been pretty clear that TToE is completely scientific and it is rubes like you who do not understand science that make Conservatives a target for libtards who say we are anti-science.<<

So in other words, the reason you keep spewing your materialist myth is because you’re afraid you won’t look “scientific” enough to our enemies.

It’s a lost cause, dude. You disagree with any “libtard” (I prefer the term “leftard”) scientific tenant, such as evolution, the gay gene, or the inherent benevolence of all government spending (the Tooth Fairy doesn’t provide enough welfare entitlements to suit them), and you are immediately to be shunned as dumber and less scientific than a flat-earther. You can’t help the insane by going insane yourself. If I were you, I’d concentrate less on trying to impress your leftard enemies with how “scientific” you are and try looking for what’s true rather than what’s popular.

I used to believe in theistic evolution myself, but then I started asking why exactly I had to reinterpret everything I believed to impress a bunch of Hell-bound fools who despised everything I believed, and realized that I could do just fine without believing in materialist miracles like something from nothing, life from non-life, and order from chaos.

Miracles are all very fine and possible (though rare), but I cannot believe in miracles without a miracle worker. Neither do I believe that a miracle worker is at all constrained by what a bunch of materialist mythologists at a college for fools think of him.

You conflate action with initiation (a common disorder).

God gave us a deterministic Universe. The rules are consistent and to be discovered (think about it: an eclipse bent light to be able to be measured to trump Newtonian theories - that also answered almost all timeframe geological questions).

God said “this is how the Universe will operate.” From the most massive celestial event to the tiniest bug in a sleeping bag it all makes sense in an ordered Universe — and God designed the whole thing.

Anyone who doesn’t scratch an itch from a mosquito and can’t see that it is as much a part of His Design as a supernova doesn’t get it. Everything in the Universe (and maybe the Multiverse) is part of God’s design.

And, yet, He sent us His Son. To die for us. So we, the humble inhabitants of this little tiny planet, can live forever.

The least we can do is use the abilities He gave us to discover the rules He put in place so we can utilize them for our collective benefit.

And Evolution is a small and demonstrable physical instantiation of His rules and benevolence.
