(even while most other facts cannot be proven), this is a big if, then I guess I would have to come to a crisis of faith. I would have to doubt the Bible and what it actually said literally in genesis. The lineologies of genesis are only about 4000 B.C. So if you add up all the dates of the years of everyone's lives it puts the garden of eden about 4004 B.C according to James Usher.
Thank you for the honest answer @gradyll
The reason I asked was simple... If you were going to tell me, 'no', then I guess discussing macroevolution would be nothing more than a mere talking point.
But since this is a debate forum, it's debatable. I will now add it to the list, in debate with you Again, I'm not a biologist, thus, my position does not rest upon whether this theory is true or not.
Moving forward, please address any/all below; which are topics you have mentioned; and I have responded:
1.Eternal vs finite is not concluded. 'Eternal inflation' alone argues for an eternal universal state, which seems to eliminated the 'need' for a creator. Differing models are floating around, but none have become scientific theory, as a conclusion.
2. Cause/effect has no relevancy in your argument. Why? Even IF our 'local universe' had a beginning, we are not able to measure what happened prior to the 'beginning' of our 'local universe' - (time, space, energy, matter). This 'Big Bang' could be the result of 'the end' of the one prior...
3. The Dover trial of 2005 seems to negate your 'eye' argument for 'irreducible complexity'
4. I know you did not ask for videos, but I did not want to type a "text wall". Pardon the 'title.'
5. If the universe continues to expand, what lies 'outside' this space?
