Theism is the belief that a supernatural Deity created the universe, the earth and life as we know it, and the same IS knowable intruding into the affairs of mankind. Deism believes the same EXCEPT the Deity is unknowable and DOES NOT intrude into the affairs of mankind.
Atheism denies the existence of any Deity and the supernatural.
ALL atheists accept and rabidly defend the Theory of Evolution, and most evolutionists, according to all polls are Theistic Evolutionists or Christians.
How could Christians, that is, persons who believe a resurrection miracle occurred accept the ORIGINS theory that all atheists accept?
If a resurrection miracle occurred then logically so did special creation miracles. But the fact of the matter remains: TEists and Atheists agree on ORIGINS that a supernatural deity is not responsible for the appearance of design seen in reality.
Logically, when Christians and Atheists agree on ORIGINS one group is not genuinely as such since Christians and Atheists are mortal worldview enemies.
We need only to explain why TEists THINK they are Christians when their views and positions say they are not.
How is a claim of Christianity substantiated and verified?
Answer: Agreement with the Bible?
I contend that TEists are not real Christians based on the fact that when Christians and Atheists agree on origins then one party must be deceived.
