    We are able to judge of good and evil, as God is. It is the conscience which is an image of God, not the toe jam.

    You are just showing your ignorance and doing
    a great disservice to more enlightened Christians.

    No.
    It's like seeing the first episode of a dire US
    sitcom and not wanting to watch the whole box set.

    Leaving aside for the moment the "But at some point, God stepped in, and created
    mankind." part of your post/position...

    Evolution by natural selection is a theory Reveal Hidden Content
    [an explanatory frame work, backed up with large amounts of evidence]
    that explains how you can get the present
    variety and diversity of life starting from a single common ancestor.

    Evolution says nothing about "the formation of continents, and land topography via
    glaciers and other sources"... Those things would be covered by various theories in
    geology and geography, and various other Earth sciences.

    It must be a better video than even I thought if it got that kind of reaction from you.

    I think I should rate them by how fast you run away.

    There would be nothing to criticize if one starts with the variations in the beaks of finches. Even Creationist believe in variations within species.

    How about we start here?

    "in god's image" means "with god-like attributes". doesn't mean he made countless tiny gods, but humans that have reason, imagination, self-awareness.

    If this so, then why, according to what you claimed in a post several days ago, did He make your viewpoint ~ that is, Grampy Bobby's ~ and His viewpoint, "diametrically opposite"? How could He model our "volition, self consciousness, conscience and mentality" using Himself as the "pattern" and yet end up with something that is, according to you, "diametrically opposite"?

    I was using a metaphor for CHess's response to your video.

    I wouldn't waste a second on it.

    If you could follow a discussion you would have realised that.
