    I am not relying on lack of imagination, but lack of proof by the audience. 😏

    That's simply untrue. There are many things that lack proof but this does not warrant judging them to be untrue. It warrants only agnosticism. You are expressing incredulity and pressing for disbelief based on getting people to share that incredulity with you. Don't let yourself be seen as a liar.

    Then, I suppose that the atheist evolutionists that argue against creation in six days by God are also using the same logical fallacy that just shows their lack of imagination. 😏

    Creation in 6 days does indeed require imagination. Evolution, just common sense.

    I don't see any common sense in believing that fairy tale. However, perhaps you should argue logical fallacies with JS357 for he says it is a lack of imagination to not believe in evolution. I only have enough imagination to believe in creation in six days. 😏

    One wonders where you came up with the 6 day idea. Your imagination? I don't think so.

    I got it from writings of Moses who got it from God. And I can imagine that taking place. 😏

    So can I. I can even imagine it without them being involved.

    And I can also imagine God as a Being much more powerful and greatly more intelligent than anything He has made. And since the discovery of the biological cell with all its marvelous workings, including DNA containing programming information to make all the parts of specific creatures that only reproduce after their own kind, I can now imagine God doing such a thing to fulfill His word.

    What I can't imagine is how the theory of evolution can account for it all, since it appears to me to be based on a random hit or miss dice game with no one to roll the dice.

    Well, back on page 1 I predicted that seeing patterns in DNA wouldn't change minds like yours so here we are.
