I'm beginning to think that I've said all I can here because all we're really doing is repeating the same things to each other, and I don't suppose either of us is going to shift. You have said nothing to me here that I haven't heard elsewhere.

You were wanting some hint that I "believe" rocks can turn into humans. This is a strawman. I said I think it is possible that organic molecules can begin to replicate. This is not fantastic complexity but the very most basic beginning of what could be described as life. I don't see any need to rule this out as being impossible, and someone might copy it in a lab in my lifetime. I have no paradigm of a creation myth or a religion set in my mind as in stone which requires me to reject certain things because they threaten that paradigm. This, to me, is true agnosticism -- being open to many things because maybe there is a truth in them. It isn't that I am not qualified to make judgements or that I am lacking knowledge. I am saying what most people ought to be saying if they are honest with themselves, and that is that however firmly we are convinced of a certain reality, there is always a possibility that our view is wrong in some way. It's where many scientists and creationists alike are making a mistake, in my opinion. You continue to push the idea that your view of the Bible, and yours only, is the truth. On the opposite end of the spectrum I know scientists who are dogmatic skeptics and think that anyone with any spirituality whatsoever is deluded. You guys are two sides of the same coin and you will bicker til the cows come home, just like they do on the Creation vs. Evolution forum.

I evolved out of there myself.
