Macro evolution theory is very certainly against which is scripturally taught.

The theory of Evolution is not against God more than the law of gravity is.
To explain how things work in our Universe is not ruling out the Creator of the universe. I can explain how the mobile phone works, but it does not mean I ruled out its designer and manufacturer.
Are you being deliberately obtuse? @pitabread has provided links to useful introductions to a subject which you appear largely ignorant of. Wikipedia articles generally contain excellent links that support the topics in the articles. You have been shown the water trough. It is your choice if you choose not to drink. If you choose not to don't be surprised if your future remarks are treated indifferently.Something not observed but conjectured.
Wikipedia isn't a scientific source.
yeah ... their "methodology" regarding the supernatural is to create THEORIES!
So is the fact that we think in brains. Scripturally we think in our bellies.Macro evolution theory is very certainly against which is scripturally taught.
Well, I believe in natural selection...this also occurs in microevolution.
I've been listening to Dr. James Tour and I just find the whole DNA and cell science very interesting.
I used to believe in evolution. I wonder if there's anybody that NEVER did. I just started thinking about it in a logical way and I cannot come to the conclusion that all this came about all by itself with no help.
Even if gas caused the BB...where did the gas come from?
And if aliens made us...where did THEY come from?
There just doesn't seem to be an answer other than something must have made us...if it's God, so be it.
I do believe that God, or some spirit, made us, and space, and time, all at the same moment.
I've heard scientists say that time came into being at the same moment that the BB happened. So, how could there NOT be time??
It's all very fascinating.
I would not call the mention of Noah an affirmation. It was more on the order of saying "she is as old as the hills". And worse yet since we no that there was nothing even close to the Flood of Noah it could be used by non-Christians to argue that it is evidence that Jesus was just a man. Treating it as a literary tool takes away that objection. I would have to double check on he affirmed Adam's existence, but that has the same problem. There are many Christians that do not take Genesis literally at all.He affirmed that Adam and Noah were real.
And Paul preached the Good News.

The scientific methodology relies on testing natural explanations, not supernatural ones. In methodological naturalism, the universe itself is assumed to be an objective basis for testing competing ideas.
As I said, scientific inquiry makes zero claims one way or another about the supernatural. It's outside of the realm of science.
is assumed
That is not a theory. That would fall under the category of Creationist Strawman Arguments.Some. For instance, the theory that DNA rained out of the sky into the ocean so that life would be possible is hilarious.
I rest my case ;o)
Evolution is a THEORY to explain the supernatural.
People of faith and evolutionists agree ... whatever happened ... happened out in the cosmos .... and the cosmos is so vast .... and can not be throughly tested scientifically and never will be .... it can only be THEORIZED.
Now it appears that you are conflating the theory of evolution with the Big Bang Theory. Those are two incredibly different ideas.I rest my case ;o)

Scriptures were not dictated by God, human authors used their world views to describe theological truths like monoteism, sin, coming of Christ etc.
I'm not sure what "case" you are resting, but you've completely misinterpreted what I wrote.
I also unsure why you keep capitalizing the word "theory" although I suspect it doesn't mean what you think it means in the context of science.
And yes, the universe is assumed to be objective. If it isn't then all bets are off.
Most creationists in my experience reject an objective universe and consequently have no real means with which to test their ideas.
Bible says that our thinking and emotions take place in our belly.I don't understand your brain/stomach statement that's your opinion or assumption ... fine.
No, RNA came first and that is abiogenesis, not evolution. RNA will self form. RNA can self replicate, that did not have to come first either. There are still problems with abiogenesis, but having unanswered questions is not evidence against an idea, nor are they "holes".The authors of the (Berkley) study were at least dealing with one of the glaring holes in the theory. Mainly, an advanced cryptological system (DNA/RNA) is required first before life can exist. Now they claim that DNA/RNA - "are simply nucleotide proteins" whistling past the fact that they are in fact coded instructions no matter how "simple" their biological make up is and that in each organism the code is so complex that it contains the instructions for creating every cell and organ in its body. The DNA inside a liver cell, won't cause the liver to produce a skin cell or a kidney cell. Even a single celled organism is incredibly complex. It eats, poops and reproduces and all of the information which allows it to do so is driven by the DNA.
So they came up with the idea that the DNA came first (it has to) and that it rained down from the clouds into the ocean and thus the first organisms were created. It isn't possible for evolution to have produced DNA. It requires a designer.
your ok basing on assumptions ... fine.
No, it claims that undefined "scripture" is God breathed. To apply that to the entire Bible is a bit of a stretch, especially parts written after that. It also does not say that it is correct, only God breathed" or inspired. It only claims that it is of use in teaching etc. in that verse.It’s God-breathed.
I'm posting this because it explains what the first female human actually means.You're thinking of Mitochondrial Eve. Contrary to the naming, she wasn't the first human woman. Rather this is the name given to the most recent common female ancestor in the human population.
She was neither the first human woman nor would she have been the only human woman at the time. You can read more here: Mitochondrial Eve - Wikipedia
I do believe some get evolution mixed up with the ORIGIN OF LIFE....Not in the slightest. The theory of evolution simply explains the mechanisms for what we observe in biological populations: how they change over time and the patterns that emerge therein.
Faith isn't required; just a willingness to learn and understand the science.
When it comes to assuming the universe is objective, sure. After all, I have no reason to think otherwise and if it were not objective then it doesn't really matter, does it?
