Gideon, my dear chap,

Sorry for the extended absence. Tending matters in various parts of the wilderness. God's people are everwhere I'm happy to report, even in the most unlikely places.

: Which is what I said in my original challenge; and what no-one has yet even come close to disputing; belief in God is alogical, since any God worthy of the name is not bound by logic. Thus you cannot use logical terms like "proof" and "evidence" and try applying them to belief in God.

There is a difference between an attempt at "proving" God on the one hand, and merely trying to demonstrate that the text of the Bible is true to exactly what it says it is. I nor anyone else could ever "prove" God, or he wouldn't be God. However, to show that these remarkable Biblical passages (scientific and otherwise), facts unknown to ancient man at the time, are indeed now shown to demonstratably true by modern science is in itself a testimony to the power of Bible.

The question then becomes, If ancient man could get it right, and modern man struggled until the 20th Century to understand it, how did he know it way back in 700 B.C.?

NOW belief comes in. God had to tell him these remarkable things. The Bible couldn't be a man-made product.

A little stray from the course. Which came first protiens or amino acids?

May our dear Lord, Jesus Christ, richly amd most abundantly Bless you today.

Robert
