That designer (YOUR designer) not only isn't God, he's barely good.

Why did it take so long to move on from bacteria to cells with nuclei? HE--the real HE--could do more than that in six days, I heard once. What are all these extinctions? What are all these unfit creatures your cheap knockoff of evolution says have to die. Why? Because HE couldn't make them right to begin with!

Yes, you can make a creation theory that mimics evolution. But it won't make your church doctrine into science anytime soon.

Hey Vade, everything dies!!! Surprise!!

Darwin is on the rocks, you just can't get over it. Go back and quote Don Lindsay, He's more entertaining than you are. Probably writes better books too.

You're assuming God is no wiser or capable than you are. You're also assuming you can deduce in your mind the purposes God had for doing the things He did and allowing the things He allowed. Your standard is your own competence and intelligence. You cannot rise above it.

If God were a mere man--if he were no smarter than you--you would have a compelling point to make about his incompetence. But if He were no smarter than you, He would have never gotten this amazing universe and its astounding richness of life underway.

Go ahead, Vade Retro. You're a bright fellow. Create a universe and have it give rise to life.
