The parting of the Red Sea, Jesus' resurrection, the burning bush, Daniel's three friends in the furnace ...Example?
Well if you're going to keep the two together, you're going to have to prioritize by subordinating one over the other -- which is exactly what David did in Psalm 19, where he talks about God's wonderful creation in harmony with the Scriptures.Science and faith were never meant to be separated -
Um ... have you ever watched the mainspring of a clock that's "winding down"?Actually it's expanding and speeding up.
The probability that the universe came into existence by purely natural causation is zero.It is unlikely and unproven that any deity exists.
No it's not. However improbable the probability of the universe coming into exisence is, the probability of a supernatural deity existing is lower.The probability that the universe came into existence by purely natural causation is zero.
No it's not. However improbable the probability abiogenesis is, the probability of a supernatural deity existing is lower.The probablility that abiogenesis could have created first life is a mathematical impossibility.
No, it's not zero. But even if it is, it's irrelevant. People reported witnessing a supernatural occurrence don't have to be lying, they can simply be wrong. And given the tendency of pattern recognition of humans, that probability is quite a bit larger than 0.The probability that EVERYONE who has ever reported witnessing or experiencing a supernatural occurence is simply lying about it is zero.
Given that your premises are faulty, this conclusion is as well.Therefore, the possibility that the natural world is the only existence is also zero.
If the supernatural has an effect on the natural world, which is your claim, science can in principle study it.The possibility that science could prove or disprove the existence of the supernatural is zero. Science is the study of the natural world only.
But then, as shown above, it is extremely unlikely that this God exists.It is extremely unlikely that those who demand physical evidence of God will ever get it until they stand before Him to explain their lack of faith.
But then, as shown above, it is extremely unlikely that this God exists.It is extremely unlikely that those who reject God during their lives will be accepted by God after their deaths.
Given the many people who did so and failed, this statement is wrong.It's extremely likely that anyone who seeks God through faith will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit;
But then, given that all those people claiming to have the "indwelling holy spirit" are likely incorrect, that is quite irrelevant.therefore it is extremely unlikely that those who deny the existence to those who have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit will be considered wise for their rejection of soverign truth.
No, it isn't.It is extremely likely that Psalms 14:1 is absolutely correct.
Believe in those miracles if it makes you happy, but a miracle, by definition, is an event which is an exception to the natural. We're talking about evolution here. Any miracles that contradict it?The parting of the Red Sea, Jesus' resurrection, the burning bush, Daniel's three friends in the furnace ...
You know -- basic Sunday school lessons that kids should learn.

KW is bold in listing these probabilities to Naturalists who are confident that they have opposing evidences.

Of course ... the order in which it occurred; such as whales before land animals.Believe in those miracles if it makes you happy, but a miracle, by definition, is an event which is an exception to the natural. We're talking about evolution here. Any miracles that contradict it?
Of course ... the order in which it occurred; such as whales before land animals.
Yes -- I get the message: It's still unlikely and unproven that any deity exists.
I'm not of that persuasion however.

Is Israel the Promised Land?What is written in the Bible need not be true.
No, and I don't intend to go.Have you been to Israel?
Is Israel the Promised Land?
The existence of God is both unlikely & unproven, and yet you don't know if Israel is the Promised Land or not.Hmm?
Well, as before, where that has to do with God, as in in that this is the land that it is said God promised the Israelites, I should say again that the existence of any deity is unlikely and unproven.
Other than that, I don't know.

Hmmm...
Sounds to me like you have some reservations about writing God out of your life totally.
There's hope for you yet, my friend.
