Whew, I'm glad I read this, Prax.......I thought you didn't like me, and that's why you were condescending and insulting to me.....but, I see you're an equal opportunity patronizer!
He set the tone IMO

I know, I was just messing with you.......you don't offend me.......and I do agree...the tone was set.......

Hi team, does anyone have any references or links that I can share with a friend of mine that I've been witnessing to. He is a medical doctor who has studied genetics etc... and is adament that creation is false and that evolution must be true.
Most of the dialogue he uses is above my station of understanding so I can't answer his questions appropriately. I'm keeping my message simple but has as before, any literature you know of would be fantastic.
I have this DVD and it is really good and thorough. It just shows how precise God has created and set everything in order.
Just noticed you can watch the whole thing for free on YouTube.
The point Ron is missing here is this atheist friend does not have a valid argument or reason for not believing in God. I suppose if I could convince him God exists and lead him to Christ Ron can come along afterwards and convince him that he is a reprobate

I was surprised by your comment on evolution myself. So, I don't think Ron set a tone, he was equally surprised.
I still don't understand what you mean here. It sounds rather like the Catholic Church who has embraced evolution. I guess so they won't lose any more members.

Prax, Creation & Evolution are at opposite ends of the spectrum! Hence my question & comment still stands.
I remind you that you didn't answer it.
BTW, I was an avid evolutionist before I came to God, I had to forsake the "theory of evolution" to embrace God's truth.
From your statement, I guess it seems you didn't or don't know yourself!
I'll have to watch this. I liked the part you posted (and have heard these facts about the perfect placement of our Earth and Sun in respect to the Milky Way before) and have high hope for the whole episode.
