Since we do not share a theological framework for discussion…

What's not there to our mutual avail? We both have access to the scriptures, and can tear down the verses to their essence.

I find this "theological framework" excuse, and the approach merely a way of cloaking Deism with the wrapper of another religion, to attempt to pass the latter off as truth... JMO.

Thanks for your reply. Theological framework is more than access to the scriptures, just as a physics discussion is not necessarily possible just because both have access to physics texts.

Your questions, as I said, indicate a rather limited, somewhat bad stereotype, view of Christianity. I can’t defend something that I don’t believe and it seems a long way to go to get to there. It would help me to know what your religious background is, whether you are arguing against religion in general or Christianity in particular, etc.

I’m not trying to convert you or justify my faith, merely discuss the subject of science and religion, reason and so on.
