    So tell us, what constitutes a house?

    Do you believe evolution is about building 20 million dollar, hurricane-proof mansions? Please test that hypothesis. Hurricane is thataway.

    So why doesn't a cave count? If humans live in a cave, then surely it is a house?

    I cave is not built to be a house. A house is designed and built for that purpose.

    It's the same as if a family walking around in the woods sees a house they can use as shelter or if it is 50,000 years ago and a family from then sees a nice cave to use as a shelter. Both abodes serve the same function. And in their case, a cave WILL be their home, decorated with drawings and covering the opening with skins and having a nice fireplace inside and more skins to sleep on, it's a home.

    We are not talking about a home. We are talking about a house that is a building as it is defined.

    You earlier asked:

    So it seems, that a person with common sense would think that a mansion was designed by intelligent beings because that is what the word 'mansion' means (being a subset of 'house). It has nothing whatsoever to do with any specific properties of the mansion or house.

    That is right. You finally got it. Now apply that thinking to the human body as being a mansion designed as a house for the human soul. Evolution does not design and create such a mansion as the human body.

    Is the human body hurricane-proof? Because if it isn't, men build better "mansions" than your god. 😛

    The men built "mansions" did not survive the Worlwide flood. Only a special ark boat designed by God could do that.

    So now it takes a god to just design a boat. Once again, men are too stupid to do anything like that, like building the pyramids.

    It takes some intelligence to design boats and pyramids. They don't happen by mindless evolution, numbnuts.
