Exactly. There is no room for evolution in faith.

I am afraid I don't understand your exegesis of the passage in question:
Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, since God is one—who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith.
Are you saying that God is only the God of the Gentiles now?

This is an example of miscommunication by having exchange of very short sentences. You have your domain of thinking and I have mine. And there is little intersection between the two.

Sorry, I refuse to retract on what idea has been expressed.

The majority of scientists are not out to get religion. There's just a handful outspoken atheist scientists who have their own agendas. Take Michio Kaku for example. He's on CNN all the time, but I think most of the scientific community would not hold him very highly.

Anyways, I see no conflict between Christianity and macro-evolution. There are too many Christians spending way too much time arguing against evolution, when they could spend that time sharing the gospel instead.

I did give you a Bible reference, that expressed that the contention between two ideas is wrong because there is only one God, my only conclusion is that you didn't look at my passage. Nor think about how it interacts with your argument.

Can you take me through the passage and tell me why God can only act in miraculous ways?

I agreed with that. So I said one of the two must go away.
It is not whether God can or can not do. It is that one of the option (evolution) is redundant and it asked for a tremendous amount of trouble.

So the Jews are redundant, so.God controlling the mundane is redundant? I still don't understand how you draw those ideas out of the passage in question

Chimp evolved to human is mundane ?

It is hard to argue with you. You seemed not understanding the question.

Try not to use the word "macro-evolution". It is a bait and asks for trouble. The best alternative is "kind".
