What made me laugh regarding the exchange was the idea that inserting the words "God could have" are any different than "evolution could have". It is amusing to me that inserting the word "God" automatically means the methods being used MUST be unscientific.
I recognise I have a bias and I work to mitigate it. But I have given up trying to persuade those who are not even genuine enough to admite their bias exists.
Or ignorant of the own biases, as the case may be. Great reply. Hope to see you turn up on these threads from time to time. All the best—GGG
