ICANT,
I look at Genesis account of creation as evidence apparantly you do not.
Biblical Genesis is a hypothesis contradicted by science. It is not evidence of itself. That's like saying that the evidence of General Relativity is Einstein's paper on it. Or that "Origin of Species" is proof of evolution, & so on.
So, no, the book of Genesis isn't evidence, any more than all the
books on science are evidence, either. In fact, you commit a logical fallacy; circular argument by even claiming such a thing. You have to make an argument of the form "I believe the biblical account because the bible is true, how do I know it's true? Because it says so". Ultimately you have to accept your conclusion in order to accept your premise.
Evidence is any data that supports a theory, so what data supports the Genesis hypothesis? Absolutely none, in fact the data contradicts it, not supports it.
So, why do you accept Genesis as being factually true? It is certainly not evidence, matey. It's a "feeling", something associated with your religions feelgood factor.
If you can have Genesis as evidence of itself, then can I have Watership Down as evidence of talking rabbits?
