>>According to zoology - man is an ape.<<

According to zoology? Simply because there are some alleles the same? You and a duck both have legs too! Anything there?

>>and that knowing and understanding these physical forces is useful<<

I don’t recall anyone saying they weren’t. In fact, all have said the God set things in motion and laws to keep this whole thing working.

>>while supposing that it was all caused by supernatural intervention is useless.<<

There you go with that “supposing” word again. That’s out and out denying what God said in Genesis. He created everything and set it all in motion. It was all caused by God’s “supernatural intervention” and to deny that is to call God a liar.

>>Right now stars are forming off in the universe through gravity and nuclear fusion.<<

Yeah so? God also destroyed this earth with the flood and killed everyone but Noah and his family. He had done that once before after Satan corrupted the entire population of this earth you know.

>>Do you think the Pope denies Christ when he accepts the evidence for biological evolution?<<

Yep! And that’s not the only way the Pope is wrong.

Some alleles? No. When comparing genomes it is obvious that of the three, human, chimpanzee, and gorilla - humans and chimps are more similar when comparing at the gene, or over the entire genome, level, than either is to a gorilla. Chimps and gorillas are less similar in DNA than a chimp is to a human. According to the science of zoology - that places us within the ape clade.

Well I am in good company with the Pope. I think we can withstand the slings and arrows of zealots insisting that neither of us can be Christian because we accept scientific evidence that you deny and/or are ignorant of.

Piety is not established on a sliding scale of how wacky your cosmology is.

Do you call God a liar when you deny that there are literally four corners of the Earth?
