Wrong. Try again.

About evolutionary scientists “hanging up their scientific coats, leave their labs and go home to family, [choosing] to believe whatever supernatural religion they [do}”, it’s not my fault they’re not consistent.

If you believe in a God after believing that we don’t have a Creator, then your God is essentially unemployed and unworthy of existence.

Now, finally...

I’m not your FRiend, and it looks like I finally gotten your ire up enough to continually insult me. So congrats, you’ve done a great job in convincing me. I now believe that Darwin was absolutely correct.

We were not created. We are basically evolved apes with big brains that help us avoid predation and get nourishment. The big brains also make us sexier to each other with things the brains invent, like theology, philosophy, the “supernatural”, and other things that are purely imaginary. Hallucinations and shared hysteria, in other words.

Being apes, we will eventually go extinct, to either be replaced by some creature with a radically different phenotype or by another ape that happens to be meaner and/or sexier.

Or maybe we’ll win the evolutionary lottery and continue until the last light in our universe burns out.

Either way, our brains and the recordings thereof will be lost. Like tears, in rain. Time to die.

Sorry about your irrelevance and all.

angryoldfatman: "Incoherence: of an ideology, policy, or system) internally inconsistent; illogical."

As your very attentive reader, examining carefully every word and phrase you've posted, I pronounce some of it utterly incoherent, babbling nonsense, sophomoric at best.
So I'll repeat my advice: grab hold of your brain, force it to think coherently, logically, understandably, then proof-read your words before posting, and replace any which don't meet that high standard with others which do.

angryoldfatman: "...it's not my fault they're not consistent.

FRiend, listen carefully: the eternal Creator of the Universe is also the Creator of everything in it, including Earth and us, regardless of how long it took, or what methods He used.
It's impossible for us to know how much of what we see in the Universe was designed by God from the very beginning and how much He accomplished through miraculous interventions.
One suspects that a perfect God would design a perfect Universe, with which he was well pleased, and which was designed to evolve without much Divine Intervention.
Regardless, it is still His plan, His design and His Universe, regardless of how much, how often or how loudly "angryoldfatman" declares otherwise.

angryoldfatman: "I'm not your FRiend, and it looks like I finally gotten your ire up enough to continually insult me."

Well...
First, by definition, as a fellow poster on Free Republic, you are my FRiend.
Further, if you, like me, contribute regularly to Free Republic, then you are not only my FRiend, you are also my FR-brother.
Of course, if you don't contribute, then you're a worthless POS, and go burn in hell, FRiend. ;-)

Second, I've not "insulted" you in the least, merely told the truth about some of your incoherent babblings.
When the truth hurts, that's on you, sir, not on me.

angryoldfatman: "We were not created.
We are basically evolved apes with big brains that help us avoid predation and get nourishment... "

But of course we were created, regardless of how God did it, it's still His work, and we still His creations.
To think otherwise, imho, is simply self-defeating lunacy.
So none of the rest of your "logic" follows.

angryoldfatman: "Being apes, we will eventually go extinct, to either be replaced by some creature with a radically different phenotype or by another ape that happens to be meaner and/or sexier.
Or maybe we'll win the evolutionary lottery and continue until the last light in our universe burns out."

Such are possible scientific conclusions, but are hugely contradicted by the teachings of, for example, Christianity.

angryoldfatman: "Sorry about your irrelevance and all."

No, you're not "sorry", just incoherent.
