At one time it was strained . . .

If you are trying to enlighten me by by pointing out that human knowledge has increased since the time of creation you need not bother. I already knew that. God created man with minds that are willing and able to inquire about the universe, and man has at times discovered that his thinking must to be modified here and there to be in accord with reality.

But to suggest that by virue of increased knowldge it thereby follows that inanimate matter is capable of organizing itself without an agent other than natural selection applied without intelligence or design, well, that is a bit much. That is a philosophy that should have a course and classroom of its own so we may consider it as one of many possibilities for explaining the universe.

At this time it is apparently a strain for you to consider that God created the heavens and the earth and still sustains them. Thankfully science can get along just fine without your kind.

No, I was pointing out that if you were born a few centuries earlier, you would be fighting those that said the earth revolved around the sun; if you had been born a hundred years earlier, you would have been figting those that said man could fly; if you had been born a few decades ago, you would have been saying man could never exceed the speed of sound.
