OK, so you believe evolution is actually a materialist religion, but you can still be a Christian and believe in evolution.

Meaning you believe that any Christian who believes in evolution must be a misguided brother and should be corrected. Either that or you support polytheism but I assume that is not correct.

OK, so how about correcting as Paul did? How did Paul correct the early Christians? Not by ridicule and derision and name-calling as you do. How about you show a little Christian brotherliness yourself in how you address the issue?

So, give me the Biblically-based reason why evolution cannot be. You are limited to the Scriptures only as that is the Pauline approach that worked rather well in the early Church. Go back to what works, rather than being an attacker, similar to the forgiven debtor that Jesus spoke negatively about in His parable.

Oh, and I’ve never heard of David Abel, and his reasoning is pretty far-off. GAs rely upon the same mechanism as the theory of genetic evolution and genetic drift; in fact, that is where the concept of GAs came from, computer scientists working with biologists to solve rather tricky problems...

Paul could be tender and forgiving, and Paul could be stern and uncompromising, depending on the situation:

“Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood. I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them”. (Acts 20:28-30).

“See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ.” (Colossians 2:8).

==So, give me the Biblically-based reason why evolution cannot be.

Jesus Christ said we were made both male and female at the beginning of creation. The Bible says death did not enter the world until Adam and Eve sinned. If death was always a part of life, then there would be no reason for Jesus to die on the Cross. Not to mention the fact that God tells us in Genesis that he made the world in six days. Everything in the creation account in Genesis flies in the face of evolution.
