Here's my problem, I believe in evolution, and it brings up doubts especially in the OT...

Not entirely accurate. Read Romans chapter 1 through chapter 2.
Bible is irrelevant. Those people knew nothing of Christianity, Judaism, etc. Additionally, the human tendency for religion actually seems to be polytheistic, given that all of the monotheistic religions are relatively young by comparison.

Let me know when you read the Romans chapters. They clearly address your point and refute them.

How revealing.

The only thing revealed is that I made a typo... meant "Paul's opinion."

Aside from that, what did I reveal that you couldn't already figure out? That I don't consider the Bible authoritative? That come as a surprise to you?

I have read all of the bible. Just becomes it claims to be true doesn't make it so.

I have more evidence for civilizations existing that knew nothing of monotheistic religions than for all of the events in the bible combined.

Auto correct will sometimes confuse apostles.

So you read where St Paul mentions that no human has an excuse as we can see the Divine attributes of God in His creation?

Reading, believing, and caring are three different things...

If I wrote that no human has an excuse as we can see the Divine attributes of Leprechauns in the Creation, would you be compelled to believe in Leprechauns?

If you are seeing Leprechauns let me know if you get their gold.

I'm not really compelled to believe in anything you write.

But you are without excuse.


"no human has an excuse as we can see the Divine attributes of Leprechauns in the Creation"

Well, you might have a good point...that is, considering descent with modification is impossible, for it to be possible the magic of a Leprechaun might be required. Seems as if you too mus believe in Leprechauns.

Indeed -- you're only compelled to believe the Bible.
