I ask again, which of these areas makes you an expert? The Bible clearly says what it says -- I have read it in its original languages. The concept of a "day" for example has many meanings across the multiple Biblical languages. have you reconciled these linguistic differences? If you have, I look forward to your scholarship, since so many before you have had great debates on this issue alone. Your perspective will be welcome.
"Peter was one of Jesus chosen and schooled at His knee He made it clear what He wanted to be said and it dealt with mens souls, not their understanding of the physical universe. Nowhere in the Gospel of Peter does it say one word about Evolution or science in General. Theology is the study of religion, as is Science the study of the physical world."
After that answer there is no doubt you would ask Peter for his academic credentials when speaking of theology. I asked if he were qualified to speak of theology, not science. The Bible never mentions evolution in any way in the entire Book, thank you for pointing that out as well.
No, since Jesus was very clear that Peter was to be a fisherman of souls. I would never presume to ask His chosen about theology, although a thoughtful debate would be a delight. Maybe I misunderstood your question?
"It is a bit ironic that you choose Peter, who found the RCC, as your forensic gladiator. It is the church he founded that agrees with me (or me, it, I suppose)."
You seem to be obsessed with Catholics for some reason. I don't care if the whole world agrees with you, you disagree with the Bible and therefor I disagree with you. You pretend like the Bible is not literal, but it is literal. You'll find out just how literal it is one day I promise you that.
I just want to point out that billions of people, many who are well-versed and experts in theology, science and both disagree with you on your personal lay interpretation. It is easiest to quote the RCC, since it is easily identifiable and quite succinct. To say that Evolution gainsays the Bible is to gainsay hundreds of years of theological scholarship developed by thousands, or maybe millions, of adherents.
God and I have a great relationship. He sent His Son to die for me and for that I am thankful daily. He created a fabulous Universe, which exposes itself day by day to those who choose to look. Its rules are consistent, if difficult to discern, much less understand.
I am sorry you choose to close your eyes to God's wonders, my brother in Christ. But, in the final analysis, that is indeed your option.
But I ask only you not blindfold others.
