I understand your logic, but that is the logic of the human, who knows how the God if it exists would think or indeed if think would even be a word suitable.
The point I have made above though, about Pascal's Wager, IS my own opinion, I don't know the answer to that one. Just seems logical based on what I DO know. |

TBH, in some cases I am using the phrases 'I think' and 'I believe' to be respectful to the people on the forum.

However, I notice the insults have started agin. As a thought process an imaginary being could have invented the rules of the Universe which eventually led to evolution, sure. As a Christian thinker that is actually quite progressive and at least allows for discussion with scientists, non-Christians etc I also could be the anti-Christ, although I dont think I am ;) |

What you describe isnt what Intelligent Design says. ID says each species was made perfectly by God and that humans did not evolve from apes

Many Christians would not agree with me. I think they would agree with me that you are not the anti-Christ, though! :) |

However, I notice the insults have started agin. :rofl: can anyone here prove that evolution isnt guided by a hidden hand ? I know I will be asked to prove it is - but I asked the question first. |

No - you can't prove a negative like that - it's another logical impossibility - like proving that God doesn't exist - it can't be done.
Now there is overwhelming evidence for evolution, the matter has to be fudged. |
