your silly claim that evolution starts with the rule that there is no God.

The fact that you keep on repeating that makes me think you must have missed—or simply choose to ignore—where he further clarified his position.

It's not that evolution starts with the premise that there is no God; evolution starts with the premise that the Bible is wrong.

"The fact that you keep on repeating that makes me think you must have missed—or simply choose to ignore—where he further clarified his position."

His attempts to *clarify* did not succeed. He is dead wrong about evolution. Evolution does NOT start with the rule that there is no God.

"It's not that evolution starts with the premise that there is no God; evolution starts with the premise that the Bible is wrong."

Which is very different from saying that evolution starts with the *rule* that there is no God. You help my argument, thanks. :)

BTW, evolution doesn't start with the premise that a literal reading of the Bible is wrong; that is the conclusion made AFTER the evidence is evaluated. It certainly isn't just evolution that has made conclusions different from the literal reading of the Bible. Geology did so before evolution.
