Ok, I’ve had enough - you win - science is wrong and I am blowing smoke because secretly I want to believe - and repent my evil ways! OOOPS!! Just kidding! We are just spinning our wheel here, Greg, talking past each other. Your fervent wish to denigrate science by saying “It’s only a theory” just reinforces what I have been saying all along - you simply don’t comprehend science, or all the empirical evidence that backs up both science and everything I have said. Only a cruel, malign God would design such a Universe that we live in, then give us a book that is supposedly His One True Word to live by, and minds to analyze that knowledge with and the curiosity to seek it, and put both of these things in opposition to each other in order to confuse and confound us! I wish you good luck, and I am out of here for good. I’ve better tasks to perform than stay here and have otherwise-sensible people attempt to cram primitive superstition down my throat as if it had any merit at all.

PS – nuclear weapon design theory is just a theory too. Care to stand 100 yards from a 10Mt warhead while it goes off? I mean, after all, it’s just a little THEORY, right? How much harm could a little THEORY do?

You still seem to think that you have to choose between science and God. You don’t; Newton didn’t, Copernicus didn’t, Heisenberg didn’t, Leibniz didn’t, etc. etc. God’s creation is what we study in science. They fit together perfectly. The mistake you make is to extrapolate a theories application to areas where they don’t apply at all and to see a theory as “true” even when scientists themselves carefully delimit the theory in their papers to a particular context.

Remember that it is your relationship with God that is important. You don’t have to follow anyone else’s path to that relationship.
