>I would like to go back now to the major premise. I deny its validity
because it ignores the issue of intention or purpose, as well as the state
of mind of the person(s) to whom the writing is directed. It assumes that
under no circumstances whatsoever would an omnipotent being of truth
misrepresent any aspect of reality. This makes God into a wooden and
rationalistic being, and I deny that he is such. So, your conclusion is
still false because the major premise is false.
If you care to defend the major premise, tell me What evidence you have that
this premise is true?>
I'm not going to do that, Paul. And I'll tell you why:
You are entirely free to tell all of us what was "really
going on" in Genesis. It is my position that Christianity
(for its own sake) needs to surrender Genesis.
