Here's whats going to happen if I debate Pel. The debate is going to move OFF of the Bible and to Carbon dating, the magnetic force of the earth, and all such things. And I have no problem admitting I'm not up to debating those things right now.
However we don't have to have perfect knowledge of all such things to know that the theory of evolution is AGAINST what the Bible teaches. I'm not arguing against the theory of evolution, which Pel can very skillfully present, but I'm arguing that the theory isn't Biblical, and is in fact against the Bible. That is the issue.
Thus, I don't want to debate Pel at this time because the debate wouldn't be based on the Bible, but will be based on things outside of the Bible, and I again admit, I'm out of my league at this point on those things as mentioned above.
I like Pelathias, I don't think hes an enemy, and I'm sure he feels the same way about me. However I think he's wrong in this area because of what the Bible teaches, he thinks I wrong in this area because of what "science" teaches. However, true science doesn't prove evolution at all (neither does it prove creation) both are matters of faith. And if I'm going to place faith in someones Word, it will be the Word of the God that saved me, and has miraculously come through at some tough times in my life, rather than atheisitc agenda driven scientists.
Again, I don't know why we say "God CAN do anything." in one breath, and turn around and say 6 day creation is "preposterous, God could NEVER do that".
