This is where you go wrong. You assume this is a battle.
Actually I already answered this in post number 19. You have theists and you have anti theists evolutionists. BOTH prove there is a God. As Cahn points out in his book the Nemesis is a part of the paradigm. I think the problem is people do not understand what is real and what is a counterfeit forgery copy. Sometimes in the world the nemesis becomes the hero and people cheer them on.
I do not even know of any religious sects that do not believe in evolution. The question is what theory of evolution they believe in. It is pretty much the soup of the day or the flavor of the week. If you do not like the theory today come back tomorrow because it will be a new theory.
"We call on the National Science Foundation of the USA and the National Natural Science Foundation of China, as well as other funding agencies, to support a working group composed of diverse researchers tasked with proposing a structure and plan for the implementations of this new system."
The anti-theists establish the control group. By their own admission they live a life that God is NOT a part of. Then we can look and see the difference in the lives of the people that are theists. In my case my father was a doctor and he used a lot of the power of suggestion and the power of positive thinking. It is difficult to go beyond that but it is possible. For example I had a situation in my life where my chance of resuscitation was only one in 1200. That is the sort of odds you expect from a miracle, not the power of suggestion or the power of positive thinking.
This is not a Bible word. I only deal with words that I can find in the Bible.
True showing miracles does not prove God. There could be other explanations. For example people use the spontaneous remission theory. Or they will just say the body healed itself and deny that a miracle was needed. The main thing is that we are getting results that non believers do not receive. Theists have answers and solutions that anti theists do not have available to them. Still that does not prove there is a God. The miracles, cures, healing, answers and solutions could have perhaps come from an unknown, unexplained natural source.
I am not trying to prove that God exists to you. I am explaining what an anti-theist is. Which really is not my job. It is up to you do to a google search if you do not understand the definition or meaning of a word. Perhaps it would help if you knew that: "Atheism is the absence of belief in gods; anti-theism is a conscious and deliberate opposition to theism". The problem is people are always accused of a straw man argument. True anti-theism has to define something that they are against. This is why people like Francis Collins was so influenced by people like Sinclair Lewis. There are two approaches to religion. There is the wedding and the funeral. You can seek to prove the Bible is true. Or you can seek to prove the Bible is not true. Either way people will prove the Bible because the Bible can not be falsified. So theism and anti theism arrive at the same conclusion and the same results.
Sorry I was not able to explain that for you in a way you were able to understand.
I took four teacher training classes at the Bible college. I am doing the best I can to teach, now it is your responsibility to learn. Truth can not be taught, people have to discover truth for themselves. This is not like secular school where you just memorize a lot of worthless information. People are so inundated with fake news, fake science and fake history that they are not able to identify the truth when they see it.
Then we must have a mexican standoff because you fail to prove that antitheism shows that God does not exist. Like I said this is the whole premise of authors like Sinclair Lewis. Anti theists end up as theists because in their attempt to prove that God does not exist they end up coming to a saving knowledge of the truth and they realize that God does exist. Read the testimony of people like Francis Collins and how he became a christian. Often intellectuals become saved through their anti theistic efforts to try to prove that there is no God and that He does not exist. This is why Malachi 3:10b says: "prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts". People have the burden to prove or disprove. If you want me to prove something then you have the burden to disprove it.
