Overlook the obvious. Be my guest.
And, you don’t own or understand God’s word or works.

To: Eric in the Ozarks

I refer you to what Darrell said in post 91:

I believe in things like resurrections from the dead and walking on water. It’s pretty hard to argue that we must reject Genesis 1-3 as not being history because they are “unscientific” and still maintain that the miracles of Christ, the virgin birth, etc., are not also to be rejected because they are “unscientific.”

If Genesis 1-3 is allegory, you’ve also got a problem of what to do with original sin. Christianity collapses if original sin isn’t real — that makes the Father a child abuser who sent His Son to die a horrible death on the cross for no good reason.
......................

And you say I overlook the obvious. If you claim to believe the Bible, the obvious is right in front of your face. The miraculous, the supernatural.

If God can multiply seven loaves of bread and two fishes, Matthew 15, to feed FOUR THOUSAND men, not counting women and children, with seven baskets full left over, he has no trouble creating ANYTHING. Including all these so called proofs for an evolutionary universe.

Lets see, there was probably more women than men at the miraculous feeding cited above. When we include their children, we’re probably looking at ten to twelve thousand people fed from just 7 loaves and two fish. Can’t you see, my scientific evolutionist friend, who claims to also believe the Bible, God doesn’t need gazillions of years TO DO ANYTHING.
