Incorrect. I was arguing about the logic of your position, pointing out how you had used a logical error (slothful induction). Therefore, your argument fails from the outset. You need to go back and fix the logical error before you can continue.
Remember this is the Bible Study forum and the OP states that:
This will be a theological defense.
In
Message 73 you reply to a post that is about a month old and say nothing more than:
Logical error: Slothful induction.
You're starting with the conclusion and doing everything you can to find evidence in favor of it, including denial of evidence against it.
Is this in relation to the one sentence made by jaywill or his entire theological defense?
If your “reasonable approach” leads you contradict what is said in several major areas, I think your reasoning must be a reasoning without God being included in the process.
If it is his statement, then why not explain how, from a theological standpoint, his logic is in error.
If it is his entire theological defense of gap theory, again explain how his logic, from a theological standpoint, is in error.
Where has he denied evidence against his theory?
It doesn't help the discussion progress if you don't make it clear to jaywill where you feel his error lies.
