nerdfiles: "You cannot accept the scientific theory of evolution and believe any sort of theism."

The fact that science/evolution cannot yet explain the origin of the universe and cannot disprove the existence of God logically means that you can accept evolution and be a theist at the same time.

You cannot arrive at both conclusions by the same method (one is by science, one is by faith) but that in itself does not rule out the possibility that they can co-exist. Whether you consider the having faith is valid or invalid does not give rise to being able to make an absolute statement about their compatibility.

Theism is not the conclusion arrived at by science but it is a conclusion that is possible to make.

"God, thru His Word, teaches a non-moving and immovable earth just as surely as he teaches a six-day Creation 6000 years ago"

And just as surely as he teaches that a woman's eyes are actually doves? (SoS 4:1)

Rather ironically we have an atheist who thinks he is a theist who doesn't believe in atheists, debating against an atheist.

Confusion abounds.

"Healing doesn't always happen there and then," he said. "It could happen when they're in McDonald's the next day."

"Healing" and "McDonalds" are not terms that I would generally expect to see in the same sentence.
