I can't be bothered to do it again, especially when you simply don't se ...[text shortened]... multiply verified streams of evidence. Why? Because it doesn't say so in your book? Come on!
The Bible does not review, agreed and it is also not a book of science
either. You either accept it or not, it isn't up for change or peer review.
To tinker with scripture is simply say it isn't trustworthy and that is
that. Either God did what it says or not.
With science it is always up for review that is its strenght, and it is also
its weakness too.
If you don't want to be bothered with me, so be it, don't be. I read
what it is you say, but if you want me to just buy into something
simply because you say, no that isn't going to happen. You want to
buy into odds being over come like I told you, you may, you want
to believe it happened over billions of years, believe it.
