I do believe I’d already answered your question in a previous post. But since you think you are the teacher and I am the student I’m certain it was not the exact answer you were looking for therefore you feel empowered to assign me a ‘failing’ grade - whatever...
You’ll not break free from your brain-washed paradigm as long as you remain spiritually dead.
Scientific naturalism is not really science at all. Didn’t Einstein say something similar w/ regards to science and religion? The problem is evolution is your religion.
You are unable to answer coherently why a bacteria has an error prone DNA polymerase gene that is expressed during stress.
If you knew the answer and had previously learned it you wouldn't be making the incorrect and ignorant statements you made about mutation.
So what is it about the answer that you find so difficult?
You are embarrassed because the answer shows just how useful mutations can be to a bacteria under stress?
Because it shows just how ignorant your previous statement about mutations is?
Speaking of which - how many large genome species went extinct due to mutation? Do you have even a single example - or is this something you “learned” from Creationist sources and think is true despite a total lack of evidence?
Your are spiritually and intellectually in a dead end that leads nowhere. I will pray for you.
“Scientific naturalism is not really science at all”
Spirited: It was CS Lewis who pointed out that the parent of modern science is that very exacting science....magic.
In this light, scientific naturalism is merely a secularized form of Hermetic magic. Doctrinally, Heremeticism is monism. Monism teaches that there is only one substance and that all lifeforms and nonlife-bearing forms share this substance in common.
Very simply, in its’ occult pantheist form it teaches that gods, goddesses, spirit guides, men, and all creatures, trees, water, dirt, dung beetles, cancer, etc. share this substance in common, therefore everything is god.
In its’ materialist form it teaches that the one-substance is godless primordial matter. Since the one-substance is one-dimensional and godless, then the transcendent (other dimension) God the Father, heaven and hell do not exist, nor do spirits, and man is soulless....and mindless. On the basis of this Hermetic variant, materialists such as Daniel D. Dennett teach that there “is no you.”
True believers like AMD and Tacticalogic have only a shallow understanding of scientific naturalism. Its’ real meaning exists at much deeper levels, down where its’ spiritual and magic dimensions are.
