I suppose I believe in parts of the Bible and other parts such as flat earth amoung others I definitely doubt.
What is your doubt based on?
Mine is based on reliable, tested, contrary evidence, multiple contradictions and factual errors, unknown authorship and extensive editing.

Of course I can be and am wrong about some things.

You are demonstrably wrong about a lot of things.

If I am corrected and accept the correction then I can possibly benefit from the correction. If ever I have a question about something I hear or read, I would like to be able to learn from someone who really knows...I have found very few people like that. If I have to learn something, like if I were to learn about evolution as part of a science course and then take a test, even if I answer correctly according to the information being presented, it doesn't mean (1) that the current information is correct and accurate, and (2) that the answer is correct according to the truth of the matter.

You forgot to answer the question. If you are wrong, how could you find out?

You should at least glance at the links I post before rejecting them out of hand
I do up to a point where they make a fundamental error based on a false assumption.
But I do not pay attention to names.

Can you give a rational explanation for the existence of any gene?

Can you give a rational explanation for how any new gene comes into being with evolution?

Evolution is not the source of novel genes. New genes arise from mutation.

It would be nice if you understood just some of the basics of this.

But understanding doesn't appear to be of any value to you.

Claims in the Bible that indicate the Earth is flat arise from a limited understanding and scope of the authors. They simply didn't have the knowledge of the wider world. So, those passages can be interpreted to mean "entire world" and not that it is actually flat as literally indicated.

Just for kicks and giggles, what specifically in your opinion was the "fundamental error based on a false assumption" you encountered in said video?
He claimed that he could disprove the flood because he claimed it violated physical laws.
I doubt he proved that but that is not the point.
God is Almighty and can and has violated physical laws.

He claimed that he could disprove the flood because he claimed it violated physical laws.

And that's where you stopped?
So you just decided before hand that his claim was wrong without actually hearing him out?
You think that's reasonable?

I doubt he proved that

Well, if you would have watched the rest, you wouldn't have to "guess".

but that is not the point.

Yeah, you in fact just acknowledged that you have no point except baseless assumptions and assumed conclusions.

Good job throwing bricks in a house of glass.

God is Almighty and can and has violated physical laws.

Ow.

Well, yeah, if you are going to simply allow for magic to occur, then "all is possible" I suppose.
Including that the universe and everything it contains, including your memories of this absurd conversation, was created 5 seconds ago.

Although if that is what you are going to believe, then what are you doing talking about evidence, proof, refutations... and whatnot?
No such thing matters in that case. You just rendered every one of your silly threads as absurd and obsolete.


You have just shown everybody here why there is no point at all in engaging with anything you say and how you should simply be ignored.

The premise of his argument is based on a false assumption and circular reasoning.
That leads him to a false conclusion.

Yet another baseless, unargued, unevidenced assertion. What premiss? Where was the circularity?
That just because the laws have nature are violated it is impossible.
That is just the no God assumption being used again and again.
Even atheists admit that they cannot prove that there is no God.
Why don't evolutionists admit the same and admit that the no God assumption is just an assumption.
