Since he thinks that evolution cannot be a fact and anyone who thinks it is a fact cannot be a Christian, he is trying to find one more thing to confirm his view.

I love it when people put words in my mouth.

Shubi, if you recall, a little while back you posted

Why anyone would care about a foreign liberal law professor who was trying to overturn a legal election process is beyond me. We need more of these "accidents" for our country to survive.

In part of my reply, I stated:

I'm not implying that their dogged clinging to "6 days 6 thousand years ago "theology" is or isn't a case of their straining at gnats and swallowing camels, merely that hypocrisy just as likely dwells in the heart of one professing to hold out the love of Christ to a dying world who at the same time can say what you said.

I don't care about the Evoluton/Creation controversy and I don't care where you come down on the argument. I DO NOT believe that it is crucial to being a Christian. Faith in Christ is the only requirement for that.

There are, however, crucial questions of Christian faith, among which are included ... did God become a man? Did the Word become flesh and dwell among us? They are crucial because the answers to them define the character of the one you are putting your faith in. If the answer to them is negative then, although you may have faith in someone, it isn't the Jesus sent by the Father

Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist. - 2John 1:7

So my questions were pointed. I did not say that Jesus was "only" human but He is a human being.

Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death– even death on a cross. Philippians 2:5-8

As anyone who has paid attention to you since you showed up 2 months ago can see, you are OBSESSED with the controversy over Evolution/Creationism. Would that you would put as much energy into seeking God as you do defending your position. God doesn't need you to defend His.

This thread is about creation/evolution. I am focusing on the subject at hand.

I don't need to seek God. I have known Him most of my life.
Thank you for your concern.

So, answer this one question so all the posters and lurkers can determine if you are being genuine:

Do you or do you not think that evolution is a fact?
