Very presumptuous of you.

No, it's not. If you go back and reread your post, you will see your rejection not only of what I said, but of straight, uninterpreted Scripture. That is God's word, not mine.

And taking God's word for what it actually said is anything but an insult to Him. I would rather trust His word to be true and be proven wrong when I come face to face with Him, than reject it as 'mysticism' and come face to face with Him, and find out that I had rejected the truth of the God who created me.

It would be best if you didn't use God as part of your argument against creation, since you have shown that You don't believe the Bible to be His word and infallible, and He has told us that it is. That doesn't put you in a very good position to be determining what is, or isn't an 'insult' to Him, since You have chosen not to believe what He has told us.

You are, of course, free to reject whatever you like..........God created you with your own free will...........but don't claim that you are honoring God by rejecting Scripture.

Science is your priority. You've made that very clear. But it would behoove you not to ridicule those of us who have God's word as a priority, and understand that science is man's quest for truth, and prone to great error, while God's revealed word is without error.

"And taking God's word for what it actually said is anything but an insult to Him."

When you ignore the physical world around you, you are rejecting His Word. That is a slap in God's face.

"It would be best if you didn't use God as part of your argument against creation, since you have shown that You don't believe the Bible to be His word and infallible, and He has told us that it is."

You believe your interpretation of the Bible, and I will believe the world around me.

"but don't claim that you are honoring God by rejecting Scripture."

Don't claim you are honoring God by rejecting His Creation.

"But it would behoove you not to ridicule those of us who have God's word as a priority, and understand that science is man's quest for truth, and prone to great error, while God's revealed word is without error."

Your interpretation of God's revealed word is most certainly with error. The debate is over what should be taught in a science class. You are free to believe whatever you want, but it would behoove you not to confuse your mystical subjectivism with science.
