What I am left with after this conversation, is that you accept evolution as the evidence supports it.

Yes, when the evidence supports it, not supposition and most of what I see is supposition. I have made it known long ago that I am not a literalist when it comes to the Bible. The words of the Bible are much more figurative than literal. Jesus taught in parables. The mysteries were explained in allegory. So on. I do not expect to come upon any talking serpents in my excursions through the forest. Nor do I expect to find the pillars about which Hanna prayed. But I have no doubt that God created all or of his infinite nature. And as I also related before, I conjecture-- If God can be proven we have no free will.

I see you arguing inconsequential details, not major suppositions.

When you allow God the use of natural processes you've already fudged on the literal occasion for a redeemer and it doesn't matter anymore how life started or how it evolved.
