Common descent in this case is millions of genetic differences--I've seen some numbers from you and from other sources on change through descent and mutation, etc. The math of rates of change is typically quoted without the other factors added--how many of those genetic changes would be dominant...
Biblically speaking, any individual who trusts Jesus for salvation is forgiven of sin now and perfected from doing sin later, to enter Heaven, even skeptics at RF! Praise Jesus!
I have been presented with--including by you--you may have forgotten--some of the math regarding overcoming chirality, the right proteins coming together, etc. What's frustrating is God of the Gaps needed for things like abiogenesis, "all we need is simple, self-replicating RNA for life to have...
Huh? A set of documents that has thousands of 100% accurate, fulfilled prophecies, and thousands of embedded codes, doesn't show its level of accuracy?!
How about you tell me what you see as the biggest reason why we cannot recreate abiogenesis in the lab, or why it seems implausible? You asking me is begging the question. It's junk science.
This "I wouldn't resort to hellfire with you, I would explore (my assumption) that you had religion, not relationship."
is not an excuse, it's a transactional reality, indeed, I've never, ever encountered a former Christian who claimed relationship, rather it's ALWAYS "I trusted this pastor, I...
I wrote "I want to avoid a lengthy argument but things tend toward disorder, not random occurences that cause the correct 40 out of 200 proteins or randomnly solve the issue of chirality, etc."
All of which has NOTHING to do with entropy. Why not smoke a joint, relax? You seem very uptight this...
The biblical quotation cites trust based on evidence. The term you are looking for is "blind faith" as opposed to "reasonable faith".
I have reasonable faith that you are unable to read the Bible--since as quoted, it says "Faith/trust is the EVIDENCE of something hoped for..."
My computational skills are strong enough that I had A's in my Statistics and other courses, even in my Master's.
The rates of mutations and the rates of positive, negative and neutral mutations are known. You are (as you are about thrice weekly) guilty of a credentials fallacy.
No, I have faith which trust based on evidence, the evidence includes life changes, Bible codes, Bible prophecy, my relationship with God, and other areas.
Pascal's Wager could be redacted easily to "everyone believes in the numinous and in moral accountability, except for a tiny percentage of...
