If a man is doing what God wants him to do, and few do, it would be a good idea not to mess with them. Yet you say you do that all the time and you are not punished for it, and claim that there is no God. But when someone does mess with God's man and something happens to them, you think God did wrong then. Maybe he thought the kids were better to be bear food than Atheists! RogerN

When Moses was doing the work God called him to do, the Egyptians found natural scientific explanations for the plagues of Moses. So don't be suprised that there are natural explanations for what God does, that's how it happened even back in the days of Moses. But they ignored the fact that Moses would not have known of the natural things that would happen. In other words, if God uses natural processes, it doesn't mean that it isn't God doing the work. Another example is the walls of Jericho, there is a fault line and an earthquake caused the walls to fall, but God knew precisely how to set up a hair trigger for the earthquake so that a shout would trigger it. A natural occurance set up at the hand of God, perhaps evolution is the same way. RogerN

John Larkin is another example of a competent designer who beleives in some fairly silly stuff outside of electronics. "Dreary realism" is an odd way of describing "knowing what you are talking about" but John too does seem to have difficulty getting his head around elememtary facts outside of electronics. -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen

Your opinions about the way the genetic system might work did imply that you were deceiving yourself pretty thorooughly in that area. -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen

Optimistic. But I've done it once or twice. Something usually goes wrong, but you can get lucky. -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen |
