The ORIGINS of my theory *IS* religious. It comes from a theological consideration of the Bible as well as an examination of the available empirical evidence. I capitalize Creator, not out of reverence or respect, but because in context I was refering to a specific person.
Excuse me. Did you just refer to God as “a specific
person
?”
My background does include the Judeo-Christian religion. I did not mean to lead you to think otherwise. My formal training is in science, and I have never had a religion class at all, although I have applied myself to theology on my own. My circle of colleagues and fellow researchers have been scientists, primarily evolutionists, not creationists. I have published in scientific journals, but not in religious journals.
I don’t believe you.
Therefore, I have not been part of the “club” so-to-speak of creationists. I know of them only through cursory readings of their publications and a few times where I have met them when speaking at a university or nearby church. I hope these comments help you understand what I meant and where I am coming from a little bit better.
Yes, indeed they do. I think you’re making this up as you go along.
