"You presume to know God’s will to say that he would not use such a device to commune with his creation.. and that’s a bit too hubris to believe."

And you presume that God is unable to communicate his ability to create ex nihilo and that you are able to speak for him. You're no different. Just a different set of presumptions.

True hubris is claiming that God can't communicate what he did without someone like you to explain it all away.

The difference between you and me is, I admit to having presuppositions and you don’t.

God is able to do anything. He could have made us with the capacity to understand creation ex nihilo. But He didn’t. So, He tells us what He did simply, without giving us whatever details behind it there may be.

For example, when He created light. He said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

It’s not like he had to call up his lab partner. He’s God.

Sorry, the above comment was meant to be addressed to HamiltonJay. I didn’t change the “to” area when I went to “reply.”

How are these people able to say that God didn’t tell us how He “did it” and in what time frame and what order?

You’d have to be a leftist “Constitutional Lawyer” to be able to read Genesis and not understand what God says He did.
