[QUOTE="MyChainsAreGone, post: 74036174, member: 241841"] Thanks. I appreciate the thoughtful and respectful reply. I would suggest that our "expectations" about God get us in trouble... just as our "expectations" in other personal relationships. And while I understand what you're saying about evolution and what you would expect to see... God has indeed set up this universe to follow the laws of physics and he's given people the freedom to act as they choose. But it's in the details that that theory of evolution really falls dead... like with the entire DNA thing I've been talking about. A "code" requires a coder... always has, always will. Design requires a designer. Always has, always will. Machines required engineers... always has, always will. The presence of coded information in DNA, of design in the fabric of life, and microscopic "machines" in every living cell on the planet... argue for an intelligence that had to have come before any of those things even existed. And then there's things like morality and conscience... they don't seem to make much sense in a purely evolutionary context... [/QUOTE]
