“I answered your post fully; my statement regarding allegory addressed all of your points.”

Then I have to assume that evolution is allegory as well. Or can I mix my facts with my myths?

I guess when the rules are pliable you can do anything you like.

You can assume anything you want. However, if science is allegory, you would have to explain the advancement of the human species since the time of the ancient Egyptians. Of course, you’d be off the hook for the period of religious oppression of science and reason during the dark ages.

Science is verifiable and falsifiable. Faith is neither. Science and faith are not mutually exclusive. Faith is outside the domain of scientific inquiry. Faith and science therefore coexist. Evolution and Christianity are perfectly compatible.
