I didn't say that I didn't understand the TOE I said I'm not going to argue with people who know more about it than I do. I understand it but I'm not an expert on it. .It's actually abiogenesis that I don't believe just happened. There are elements of TOE like natural selection I believe

Just to point out, we know abiogenesis happened because there is life. What we don't know is how it happened. Hypothesis range from God creating man from dust through to aliens seeding the planet.

Kinda mean spirited thing to make up.
No signs there that remote viewing- tele mindredaing is
your thing.
Apparently if I question the TOE I'm ignorant dangerous and reject all science

I don't believe it just happened by itself. Apparently that means I'm ignorant dangerous and reject all science

There was a time when there was no life. Now there is life. That’s called abiogenesis.
If it's that simple then who doesn't believe it? I don't believe it happened on its own accord. Apparently that means I'm ignorant dangerous and reject all science

By ‘evolutionists’ do you mean scientists?
Why do you equate the two? If someone questions evolution does that mean they reject all science? I don't. But from what I'm getting on this forum if you question evolution you are ignorant dangerous and reject all science

No. I think a cat majority don't think it happened by itself. That has nothing to do with science. Rejecting science would be the claim that it could not happen through a naturalistic process.

If there is a God, he used very defined processes in his creation. Science is simply the search for those processes.

And I don't reject science

No, it just means you don't believe it happened by itself. But you don't need to reject the theory of evolution because of it.

Do I have to accept all of the TOE as a fact to avoid ridicule?

They too.

In fact, as they say:

Amateurs build the Ark, professionals built the Challenger.

(Or something like that.)
