1. There would have to be a whole lot more evidence of transitional fossils in place now to get me into the notion of evolution and out of the Biblical POV. That is pie in the sky. Imo, there should be millions of specimens.
There are millions of transitional fossils as every fossil is inherently transitional. Your lack of cognitive ability to understand this is exactly what the ToE says is not an impediment to its validity.
2. Nearly all of the latter day unfulfilled prophecies are beginning to emerge into fulfillment so there's little left to dissuade me from the Biblical POV.
Yes, Tyre is uninhabited to this day and Jesus returned in 1844 but he is in hiding.
3. There's enough evidence in place so that if things like the flood were empirically falsified, I would stick with that evidence and conclude that there were errors in the record.
It would not matter how much evidence there is against any global flood to as you would not believe even God if he told you otherwise. (as God has done through physics, chemistry, geology, biology, anthropology, history, and linguistics in at least 100 categories of millions of pieces of evidence).
4. There's far too much personal experience empirical evidence for me ever to become an apostate. Of course that evidence is empirical to me and not such that I should expect you to acknowledge.
Your relationship with whatever personal god you have made up is meaningless to me except when you try to use the levers of state to force me and mine to worship your, what in IMO, is a false god of hate and fear. To me and many others this constitutes a rejection of the message of Jesus Christ, who preached love, feeding the poor, healing the sick, and turning the other cheek.
Now my friend, let me ask you a question. If it could be empirically demonstrated and verified that the debris relative to the Exodus at the Nuweiba sandbar was indeed charriot parts, that the split rock in the region was relative to the Exodus and that the black top mountain in the region was indeed Mt Sinai, imperially verified by additional artifacts in the region, would you be convinced of the Biblical record relative to that event?
Obviously this is not addressed to me as your hatred of what I have to say, from your posts, likely extends to my person in your case. But to answer your question the answer would be an emphatic NO if it came from your usual dishonest sources who violate a Commandment of God.
Edited by anglagard, : Had to add the term 'from your posts,likely' to second to last sentence as I do not know Buzsaw except through his posts and therefore make no claim to be his judge, a position exclusively reserved to God under the terms of the Bible itself.
