Miracles will do that.
Creation was a process, of which you're standing on its product.I'm still waiting on any evidence of creation.

You might as well look at this:
... and say, "I'm still waiting on any evidence of its creation."
True. True. You can recreate one under controlled conditions.But we know that a cake is created by people. We have masses of evidence for that.

Humans wrote the bible, and most of them were anonymous.1) Divine revelation, Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, the constant teaching of the Magisterium.
2) Read the source material as listed in #1
The what?3) The animating principle of the human person
You've seen a soul?4) The human soul works through its functioning human body.
The what?5) Same answer as #3
One is living, one is not.6) Examine a corpse and a living person
You're not alive, then you're born, then you die, then you're not alive anymore.7) Offer a rational alternative
Anything else?

(I'm just trying to convince you to stop wasting your time waiting for someone to produce it.)
An exercise on judging and ranking explanations by rational criteria.An exercise in rational thinking on the plausibility that evolution theory fully explains the human being?
Frankly, we don't need to be explicit about the First Principles of Philosophy to have a reasonable discussion. The rest of your question is a non-sequitur - if I accept a principle, I'm accepting something that already has a definition.OK. To disagree productively, we must first agree. As a rational thinker, which First Principles of Philosophy do you accept and how do you define those principles?
Munchalicious scrumptalectable!Cute.
Do you accept every exotic claim that people make? Those are very simple questions that anyone making an exotic claim should be prepared to answer.Man ... science must be a drag when it comes to the things of God.
Then the Bible exposes them.Humans wrote the bible, and most of them were anonymous.
The use of the passive voice leaves one wanting. Who does the "considering"? Once "considered", is it fixed? If not then your sources as evidence of direct observation of speciation are pretty much useless as evidence. And fundamental logic tells us that the first observation of a thing is not necessarily the first instance of a thing.
I'll admit that they can't.I'll stop waiting for someone to produce it when people admit that they can't,
They should stop trying to use it as science.Warden_of_the_ Storm said:... and they stop trying to use it as science.
Nope.Do you accept every exotic claim that people make?
Not to mention replication, multiple samples, sharing samples with different labs. statistical analyses etc. all of which decrease the uncertainty in a given measurement. definitely not a scientist.It's the *different methods* that was the point.
Of course, if the same technicians use the same apparatus to make the measurement then additional measurements may not have the added impact of improving reliability or accuracy.
Geological dating relies on multiple methods to determine age, just as other fields do to determine critical measurements.
The whole point is to have techniques with different biases and sources of error.
I'll admit that they can't.They should stop trying to use it as science.
To be fair, when it comes to you and your views on creation... it really doesn't matter either way just because your views are very unique.
OK, so some people told you it's true and wrote it down, so you believe it - and 'divine revelation' - was that a personal epiphany? the voice of God?1) Divine revelation, Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, the constant teaching of the Magisterium.
