A god created earth for humans

- I did not mean to forfeit, I just had a busy week That is understandable plus you still have enough rounds to win. - Evolution and Genesis Evolution can't disprove the Creation because Genesis can be interpreted in ridiculous amount of ways (Personally I follow about 3 interpretations) and the evidence of evolution contain Atheistic and Naturalistic presumptions. Furthermore I treat creationism as an idea meaning it can adapt to virtually every theory. You also mentioned that evolution doesn't explain the question of why, I agree though I still have to hear the opposing views. - Archeology The Bible is indeed archeologically and historically accurate. As for "creation, the Flood, or the conquest of the Holy Land" Ill remain neutral until you show evidence of the contrary. "few instances of historical accuracy are so significant" If in tune with this assumption, then we still have huge amounts of evidence considering the amount of books the Bible contains.Simply said I can use the gospel of Luke to make the genesis book more probable but you can simply refute the book of Matthew and the entire Bible falls. "An equal claim for accuracy can be made for the "Iliad" and "Gone with the Wind." I didn't read "Gone with the Wind" but you do realize that Iliad is simply a long poem while Bible books such as Kings 1 and 2 are supposed to contain full historic accuracy. These books are never intended to be fictional. However I have a feeling that I misunderstood you. - Design "If different kinds are not genetically related, what is the explanation for the greater and less similarities between different kinds of living things?" One creator. "That is to say, why would special creation produce this complex pattern rather than just resulting in all kinds being equally related to all others?" This involves the mind of God hence this topic will be fruitless but I suggest that everything and I repeat that everything is incredibly complex (Universe, DNA, Nature, Our bodies, etcetera) from this we can conclude that Gods idea of "special creation" differs from yours. However this is only a suggestion. - Evolution "If another theory replaces evolution, the new theory must somehow explain why the current theory passed all the tests." Presumptions and assertions with the mixture of truth. However I don't have to debate evolution. As far as I'm concerned our God created this world via evolution. Maybe not, but that doesn't change the fact that this doesn't concern me. - Something fun "Creationism, then, is not a possible replacement." Please explain me how creationism is a theory in the same way evolution is. - Faith "Faith requires one to dismiss logic and reason" I am sure that by your definition it does but by mine it does not. "It promotes closed-mindedness" Then it would be narrow minded for me to believe that my doctor knows what he is doing? No but what you are referring to is blind faith also called naiveness and stupidity, I assure you that I'm neither. - God God cannot be created and I am certain the you've heard this many times. One may ask how is that possible but since we believe that God has created time, I suppose it would be also easy to believe that God has created the idea of birth, creation, design, the concept of human reproduction and the ability to invent. Ergo this becomes a question which isn't meant to challenge the idea of God but to praise him just like the question of who is like God? - Paradise "even if a god does exist, it would make more sense for him to get rid of us entirely instead of keeping us around after life" I doubt that there is anything more to this comment than emotions. "Religious people believe so strongly because they want so strongly to believe." I have no desire to give up on sin and I live a comfortable life hence you're wrong. - Examples of creationism What do you mean by that ? I can debate you that generally speaking this world seems to have a design (complexity and such things would be mentioned). However first I ask for clarification.
