Jar instructs us to throw away the Bible
Jar explained why he would say such a thing in post #56 above. I won't try to explain further as my mind reading skills suck
I just happen to agree with his ideas presented so far.
If Jar thinks that God is awesome when he looks at nature, but at the same time, he posits that God really has no hand in the formation of anything, then He just an Observer as we are
Humanity has been around for a mere instant when considering the
eternity of things. Participation or lack thereof in this period of time hardly seems criteria for deciding on His glory/greatness. You seem offended that Jar presents "just an Observer", I just think that this idea presents a God that is capable of making it right the first time, therefore having no need for a guiding hand.
It can be implied that He is just as eager to see what comes about as we are.
I don't see where this is implied.
whether or not his definitions are compatible with the majority consensus
This is where you and I happen to agree. I would hold reservations to calling his views creationist due to the common understanding of what this implies. Creationist and evolutionist certainly are mutually exclusive in common thought, right or wrong.
