Don't get me wrong, I am not interested in Old or Young Earth views, only in do you believe in Creation or Evolution, the two are mutually exclusive.
no they are not . It’s just ignorant to think that . A lot of Christian sects accept mainstream science. Just FYI the universe is old. The earth is old and life on this planet evolved to the point that humans are great apes

I really do not need you to become insulting.

Forget it SH discussion over.

Does clarity in a discussion really bother you that much?
Clarity in a discussion requires an understanding that specialized language is often used in specialized fields. Writing it off as some kind of "hijacking" trick does not promote clarity. In fact, now that you know that scientists mean something different by the word "theory" than the meaning commonly assigned to it in colloquial speech, no trickery is possible.

Why was it necessary for Scientists to Hijack the word Theory and change the Definition to meet their beliefs, than just use the word Truth, because that is what you and every Scientist are saying Evolution is.....Truth.

No, that is a misrepresentation of science.

I am considering the source, I have more faith in the knowledge of Christians than you or him seem to possess.
"Faith in the knowledge of Christians?" What does that mean? Or perhaps you are defining "Christian" as only those who agree with you about creation? That would exclude over two billion people who are devoutly convinced of their salvation in Christ.

Give me a post number.

You have posted to almost every other post I have made which were not addressed to you but you skipped over the questions, I have to ask myself why.

Is it because you only like to make remarks in order to provoke an argument.
Find it if it means so much to you.

I didn't mean to. If you addressed science based questions to me, remind me where to find them because I would certainly like to address them.

I'm perplexed that you didn't explain how a rare, random, so-called beneficial mutation has the ability to overcome the odds and occur again and again in the genome of an animals progeny to the point a new trend is realized.

Because it is passed on through sexual reproduction.

Will you accept my telling you, God Created everything there is and there is nothing that He did not Create?

Sure, if you can provide evidence to support that claim.

But it seems that all you can do is make claims and not provide any supporting evidence. You claimed evolution was false, but you gave no evidence to back up that claim. You claimed God created everything, but you gave no evidence to back up that claim.
