The "Eve gene" - another creationist fail

Shad

Veteran Member
I think you got the subjects mixed up. All I said was that the Bible can support evolution. The Bible simply doesn't support the evolution of Adam and Eve.

Are you moving the goal post? Is that intellectually honest?

Ergo does not support evolution at all. You are cherry picking.

He didn't ask about your opinions of your tests.

He asked for you to explain what those tests are.
Yes... I know. I have answered many things to him/her in the past at the answers are always a retort or a put down vs an honest discussion.

You didn't answer this question. I don't know about what other posts you are refering to.

I'm quite interested in the answer myself, but I suspect you'll categorically refuse to live upto the challenge.
I'ld love to be proven wrong here.

Be happy to... HOWEVER,

I am not trying to "prove you wrong" other than your "categorically refuse to live up to the challenge" is somewhat self-serving and is wrong in attitude and presentation and content. And not pertaining to the OP.

So open another thread.

:rolleyes:

Just think about the amount of time and webspace you have wasted already, just to dance around for 4-5 posts while you could have just given a straightforward answer to a straightforward question right from the beginning.
You accuse me of being self-serving and "wrong in attitude", but meanwhile..... you completely confirm my expectation.

I'm not new to this game, you know. I have some experience already in what path such discussions tend to take. I actually even have first hand experience with you concerning such things.
My expectation wasn't mal-intended. It was just the most probable expectation based on my previous experiences concerning such types of questions and topics.

So far, I'm only seeing my expectation being confirmed. Can't say I'm surprised. Although I meant it when I said I'ld love to be proven wrong concerning my expectation.
Just once I'ld like to have a conversation like this to cross over the finish line. But somehow, for some reason, it always gets derailed and dodged into oblivion before that line even is in sight.


I understand though.

I knew that if you were really interested, you would have created the post. My surmise was that you wouldn't. You confirmed my suspicions.

I understand why and that's why I don't waste time on those types of questions from those who don't really want honest dialogue.

None that is important to you. I've already wasted the time it took to post three responses to you.
You mean that you posted typical proselytizer nonsense. And then made false claims about others. Don't blame others when you cannot come up with a rational reason to believe.

You have given me exactly zero reasons to think that you'ld answer such questions honestly and sincerely in a seperate thread. You have given me much reason to think that it would be just a waste of time and that if I would persist, I'ld just end up chasing you for answers in vain for page upon page upon page.

My surmise was that you wouldn't. You confirmed my suspicions.

That's because you set it up like that and pretty much invited me not to engage between the lines.
Kind of like a self-fullfilling prophecy.

And the dodging continues. The running excuse this time, is false accusations.
Groovy.

Doesn't it say somewhere in the new testament in Peter that believers should "always be prepared to give reasons for the faith that they have" or something?
Funny how there is a direct correlation between fundamentalist levels of belief and the ignoring of that passage.
The "stronger the faith", the lesser the willingness to "give reasons for the faith that they have", it seems.

Yes, it does. And this is a verse that proselytizers never seem to follow:

15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,
