Re: [asa] Random and design

Correct me if I'm wrong Pim, but your own biblical philosophy seems to profess that 'everything evolves,' and thus draws no logical limit around the process philosophy of evolution. Kataphatic and apophatic theology aside, the notion of intra-specific competition and struggle for life/existence would seem to suggest an 'expect the worst' strategy also. Wouldn't it?

  If we should expect the worst from eachother, how can anyone consequently take anyone seriously. Even your statement that many people 'mean well' seem to end up undermine your own position. I believe that the Bible offers much better philosophies than this.

  Thanks for the link Janice, it's a good (though a bit critical) summary.
@ Yes, it was a bit critical, but I thought it was fair. Many people, including professing Christians, "mean well", but I subscribe to the axiom, "Caveat Emptor". Scriptures teach the total depravity of man, therefore we can hope for the best -- but expect the worst from each other and from the social institutions and "movements", etc. humans devise.
