Your hermeneutics are disasterous (as if that matters to you). At least make an effort to put this verse in context. He was referring to His messianic claim being challenged by a skeptical ruling class. To insinuate that the Lord Jesus Christ was saying anything at all supportive of the evolution argument is defamatory and scurrilous. You must be utterly vile to make such a suggestion.

You are vile to call him vile. And how do you know what Jesus thinks of evolution? You got some kind of pipeline?

I did give the context. Matt 12:38 "Then some of the Pharisees and teachers of the law said to him, "Teacher, we want to see a miraculous sign from you.""
It is written. That means it's addressed to all. The demand applies to anyone making it, not just Pharisees, or teachers of the law. That's why God calls them an evil and adulterous generation. They are all members of an open set that is not defined by title of teacher, or Pharisee, but by evil of heart. The sign of the prophet Jonah is the Holy Spirit, the One who lives and answers those who take His advice, "seek and you shall find."

"To insinuate that the Lord Jesus Christ was saying anything at all supportive of the evolution argument is defamatory and scurrilous."

His words are quite clear about the matter. Any scientific evidence showing that God exists, other than knowing the Holy Spirit, is a miraculous sign. Science uncovers the truth, but not all. Some truths were hidden and are kept protected by "the cherubim with the flaming sword." That is the physics of this world.

"You must be utterly vile to make such a suggestion."

I'm only vile, because I don't believe what you say and instead have chosen to believe what God said.
