Wrong again
What we reject is the leap of logic and faith being employed by blind people like you who will try to apply the same mechanism to explain macro-evolution (the goo-to-you theory). Come on get real.
​
You are apparently unaware that many Christians accept macro-evolution and the whole Theory of Evolution.
​
See Clergy Letter which has been endorsed by over 10,000 US Christian Clergy.
​
Macro-evolution is strictly historical with no evidence to show except lots of speculations. It is classic equivocation by evolutionists to mean macroevolution when they speak of evolution, but turn to microevolution when asked for evidence.
​
Wrong yet again.
​
Macro-evolution is the sum of Micro-evolution over time. You only see it when looking at two distant points in a continuum. Only when you look at two or more examples widely separated does the FACT of Macro-evolution become visible.

Re: Illogical Assumption
Things reproduce according to their kind, just like the Bible says (Genesis 1:11,12,21,24,25). They always have and they always will”while ever this world exists.
​
"There are many breeds of pigeons, cattle, horses, dogs, etc., but they are all pigeons, cattle, horses, dogs, etc. Recombination of existing genes can produce enormous variety within a kind, but the variation is limited by the genes present. If there are no genes present for producing feathers, you can breed reptiles for a billion years and you will not get anything with feathers!"
​
More totally unsupported assertions that also include totally undefined terms. In addition it has absolutely nothing to do with anything in my message.
​
Acceptance of nonsense phrases like "within kinds" and the rest of your post is unfortunately both common and unchallenged in far too many of today's Christian Churches and schools. Thank GOD that is not the case here.
​
In Message 16, which you failed to address, I pointed out two things, that much of Christianity fully accepts the Theory of Evolution and also rejects Biblical Creationism and that you do not seem to understand what Macro-evolution means. The post I am responding to simply confirms that you do not understand what Macro-evolution is.
​
The question is, do you want to learn or are you committed to maintaining your ignorance?

RE: Scripture and True Science
Why don't you re-read the Bible yourself especially Genesis 1 & 2?
​
What you will find is that the two myths are mutually exclusive, that the two GODs described are totally different, that the God pictured in Genesis 2 is somewhat of a bumbler and idiot at times and that the creation tales included in the two myths have been totally refuted.
