This man I'm talking about is one of the most famous revivalists in America today.What if the person was schizophrenic?

I'm going to withhold his name for obvious reasons.
The name doesn't matter; the point I made does.Ted Haggard?
Science can take on anything/anyone that makes a claim.
Does this 'voice of God' provide any information you did not already have, subconsciously or not?
No? Dismissed as imagination, no matter how real it feels. That's is just how the human brain has evolved to work. Very suggestible.
Yes? Can that information be verified and can it be repeated? You would rock the scientific world.
Nothing yet.
Myself, if I thought I was hearing the 'voice of God' I would ask how find missing children. Cure diseases. Help out on the Unified Theory of everything. The world would change....
No need to. We just have to find someone that claims to hear God's voice, then see if they can pass my simple test.Well, then I guess you will have to become one of His disciples if you want to hear from Him.
The devil already tried it, and it didn't work -- qv Matthew 4.Anyone?

Evolution says nothing about the origins of the universe, the solar system, even the origins of life. Thus your statement is inane and completely devoid of meaning.
As Nathan Poe said... does that rule out speciation events then? (Keep in mind we've observed dozens and dozens of them.)
So what would prevent speciation? (Bear in mind we've already seen it happen)
An active imagination is the hallmark of a good scientist.Sure... go ahead... we understand.... we know you evolutionists are good at imagining.
No need to. We just have to find someone that claims to hear God's voice, then see if they can pass my simple test.

Nope, no one is interested in your "simple" test. Somethings are above that.
A species is a classification we have put on organism. A species is usually an organism or group of organisms that are isolated sexually within itself.Isnt that really the argument of evolution that all life on Earth has resulted from the speciation of earlier organisms? I am sure you have some, so can you give me examples of when speciation has occurred.. Please include the definition used to definition of what constitutes a species.

You have just banned all they have.IAnother reference from a bible will be accepted as abdication.
This is irrelevant to the Theory of evolution. only applies with how living organism have adapted and changed due to their environment.I will make mself more clear, for you. I believe that the Bible is the Word of God. Therefore, I believe that God is the creator of everything. Without a universe, a solar system, or an earth there would be nothing to evolve. So, I go back to the beginning.
There is no Genesis theory, only an assertion. The reason why the Genesis account is not a theory, is because its not a testable model. Its an explanation of events with no data, only assertions. Theories are tested models that have predictable results.Now let’s look at a summary of the Genesis theory of Creation:
God made the heavens and the earth and all that is in them in the following order:
How do you know this is how it actually happened, and this is not just what the author at the time thinks what happened? What data do you have that supports that this is the actual chain of events?· Day 1: The earth without any form; water; light
· Day 2: The sky, the earth’s atmosphere
· Day 3: The bodies of water; the dry land; vegetation
· Day 4: The sun, moon, and stars to serve as signs, seasons, days, and years.
· Day 5: The aquatic creatures; the birds
· Day 6: The land creatures; man
Can these two things, evolution and creation, work together?
How do you define micro evolution? I'm asking because if you believe that God made certain kinds, then I would need you to explain what separates kinds, because we have found through genetics that Bears, Foxes, Wolves, Dogs, and Weasels all descend from a common ancestor that makes up caniforms. Would that be a kind? Then when you add felaforms into the mix (cats, big cats, Hyenas) we find that all felaforms and caniforms trace back to a common ancestor that looks similar to a weasel/lemur like creature.As a Christian, I believe in creation (In the beginning God created…with ongoing micro-evolution of the species.
It's not a theory it's a story.Now lets look at a summary of the Genesis theory of Creation:
Of course they can't work together because evolution is a fact and the creation is pure fiction.God made the heavens and the earth and all that is in them in the following order:
· Day 1: The earth without any form; water; light
· Day 2: The sky, the earths atmosphere
· Day 3: The bodies of water; the dry land; vegetation
· Day 4: The sun, moon, and stars to serve as signs, seasons, days, and years.
· Day 5: The aquatic creatures; the birds
· Day 6: The land creatures; man
Can these two things, evolution and creation, work together?
We wouldn't see anything, there would be no world, no universe. Without a creator, there would be nothing.
The answer really boils down to whether we have faith or not. I have answered in other threads that I support creation and then micro-evolution; that is evolution within species.
It's not a theory it's a story.
Of course they can't work together because evolution is a fact and the creation is pure fiction.
From this statement, am I to assume that you do not believe the Genesis account recorded in the Bible?
