well steve,we can at least agree that if some god did create via aeons of evolution,it would reflect badly on said god.
i was listening to a discussion yesterday between an atheist and a theistic evolutionist who IMO did not do so well precisely because he already was conceding too much ground.i would love to see a debate by the likes of dawkins against a qualified creationist scientist like ,for eg johnathan sarfati.of course dawkins refuses - supposedly not to give creationism respectability.on the other hand if he did accept the challenge he could demonstrate what nonsense it is - could,nt he?.well i have no worries about any such fair contest demonstating which position is weak.

little hawk - on line bullies may try to intimidate.if i dont reply to such it is because their attitude and foul lanquage dont deserve any response.

eliza - i am sorry that you seem to find my post too simplistic,reassured or not the answer you were looking for. jack that you find it needful to gainsay that post for some grammatical error.wishing you well.
pete.
