Theistic Evolution doesnt work with the bible.

Rebuttal to Pro's Round 2 Opening Argument. Other rebuttals will come later. 1. The Bible states that God is the Prime Cause of all things. "But to us, there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things . . . and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by Him" (1 Corinthians 8:6). With theistic evolution, the events, in the beginning, were naturally caused. Exactly. God is the "Prime Cuase" as you stated. While evolution might be the cause of new species to emerge, the ultimate/prime cause of evolution is God. 2. Creation order doesn't make sense. According to Genesis, the order of animals is Birds and fish, Land animals, then Humans. But according to the evolution, the first animal to roam on land was around 530 million years ago, and the first birds were in the Triassic period which is 251-199 million years ago. So evolution and Genesis don't line up because Genesis says birds can first then land animals, but Evolution says that land animals are first, then birds. As I said before, their are scientific inaccuracies in the book, but this is permissable because it is not a science book, but religous revelation. You might be asking, "Well, if God is so smart and perfect, then why didn't he reveal the truth to the divinely inspired authors of the Bible?" While this is possible for God, I think he simply didn't WANT to do it, because that's not the purpose of the Bible. If God explained how everything works, such as DNA, evolution, and other stuff, then humans wouldn't get the chance to find these things out themselves. So in a way, God is giving us a chance to make great discovereies by not revealing everything. 3. Theistic evolution does not acknowledge Adam as the first man, nor that he was created directly from "the dust of the ground" by God (Genesis 2:7). There's almost no way to tell that Adam was the first man, but I'm not gonna rule out the possibility. 4. So if Adam didn't exist, Jesus doesn't exist. How? In Romans 5:16-18, it says that the Savior Jesus and the Sinner Adam are linked together, so if you don't believe Adam existed, Jesus didn't exist either. First off, this point is a little off topic. But I will say that almost all historians, religous and atheists alike, aknowledge that Jesus was an actual historical figure. Of course there is debate over whether he was the Messiah or not, but here is a source that shows works outside of the Bible that refer to Jesus. https://www.biblicalarchaeology.org... 5. However, the very thought of purposefulness is anathema to evolutionists. "Evolutionary adaptations never follow a purposeful program, they thus cannot be regarded as teleonomical."5 Thus a belief system such as theistic evolution that marries purposefulness with non-purposefulness is a contradiction in terms. So states evolutionary doctrine, but this is a highly arguable statement. It's very hard to judge if evolution has a purpose or not, but I could easily see it having one if God does exist. Of course, if you are atheist, then there is no purpose for evolution. But I hope you can see just how easy it is for theists to believe that it does. So why would God "write" the bible if its lies and he says to follow it? You have to understand that God didn't literraly pick up a pen and write the Bible all by himself. It's believed that human writers were inspired by God and wrote the book through the power of the Holy Spirit (as mentioned in 2 Timothy 3:16). So it's understandable that humans are not perfect in knowledge, and they will make mistakes or add their own ideas of science. However, I believe that the parts dealing with religous revelation, the most important part, are the parts that God truly had a hand in. take a look at this link, it's pretty interesting. https://www.jw.org...
