There's no contextual evidence that I believe in a gas ball moon in comparison to your attempting to convince a coworker of the literalism of Genesis.

My response was God started with light. He would not accept that. Why? Because I am not allowed to start at that verse, I had to start at the first verse. In the beginning God created..... to him that was an act of creation. But it's not. It's to say "once up on a time God created".... then it breaks down the acts and in orde


It's not a personal attack to make a logical inference.

I do. My argument is that this study helps confirm other studies on this topic.

As I stated.... nothing more... nothing less.

It's people like you who have taken this very personal. It lead you to make claims about what I have not said in fact.

No, it's not. If that was the case then the below...

Is not true when you throw in your Nuclear Physicist friend and infer biblical references, and also saying the "God did it" was truth.

If you believe in God, you do not believe in a scientific approach.

There is no contextual evidence that I stated anything about a young earth. Yet here you are tKing liberty. You are guilty of your own accusations.

I'm accusing you of literalism, but I asked if you were a subscriber to the Hovind brand of literalism. You are once again proving incapable of making an apples-apples comparison.

How are those things at odds in your mind? Don't forget to add the context.

I have answered that question. Is there another way for you to get the answer outside of me says parts are literal and some speak from a poetic view?

Adam and Eve? God fundamentalists are dumb. If Noah's flood occurred how could you trace that back through a bottle neck of 8 people?

You can't, no telling what's wrong with that study. Or perhaps the study is fine it's the idiots trying to suggest it says something more than it does.

And you would expect something like this through evolution. Humans have 46 chromosomes and the great apes have 48. Humans and the great apes share a common ancestor. But how? 46 vs. 48... Human chromosome #18 is the result of merging two great ape chromosomes. Having offspring with this genetic mutation would have caused a genetic reproductive barrier between those offspring and the rest of the great apes. It would manifest itself in the same way as that article described, we'd all share the same genetic lineage.

Which means it was settled (you didn't explicitly state anything btw), but your response was to make an accusation based on no evidence in return.

So it goes to the task at hand. The paper does not make the conclusion of a single breeding pair being the origin of the human species 100k-200k years ago.

Why is that? Are you saying God couldn't have created the universe like scientists believe it was created.

That's a fun discussion, but not one that can get anywhere just on the basis of lack of evidence for or against.

God did it = magic.

Science =/= magic.

Why can't it be God created the universe via the Bing Bang?

Not to mention we have no evidence of a bottleneck causing massive death of humans in that time frame either, if he prefers the idea of Noah vs Adam/Eve.

The big band didn't create the universe, it just explains how the universe came to be the way it is today.

Well I'm pretty sure God wasn't going to wait 13 billion years to finally create Adam and Eve
