Well at least after a few weeks of asking questions I get what I was
asking for, a statement of where the loyalty of scientists on this list
lies. If nature must stand on its own without scripture, we have a
functional atheism that places science above scripture. Nothing can
stand on its own two feet apart from scripture for the Christian since
God's revelation is two-fold, the general which leads to many erred
results according to scripture (nature), and the specific which is God's
very word to man (scripture). Scripture teaches us what nature says
about God, not the other way around.

So we can impose a evolutionary system on nature because man says so?
So you admit, man has authority over GOd and man's view can be imposed
on nature, while God's revelation cannot! Thank you for belong so
clear, at least my presupposition has been proven correct, that
scientists on this list, for the most part, hold much more loyalty to
scripture, than to God's word. CLear evidence of this is in your
statement that we cannot allow scripture to be imposed on nature, but we
can allow science to be imposed on scripture.
