Hey all,
If nobody else is going to...
In Ray's latest post; "
Grasping for Evidence", he neatly avoids a question from blogger Andy which seems to ask about the 'pick 'n' mix' attitude that Ray has towards what is part of the natural world (and subject to natural laws) and what falls under the umbrella of bat-shit crazy things that happen in the Bible.
Now, I'll admit that the question isn't particularly clear, but the answer Ray gives is just Classic Comfort Food.
I particularly like this bit:
"However, what they [atheists - professing atheists, to be precise] maintain that they cannot find--evidence, is right in front of their nose. God created the sea. It didn’t crawl up out of a puddle billions of years ago, created by nothing. How crazy is that? So, if God made the sea, He can part it if He wants to."Once again I feel the need to state that Ray
knows that nobody thinks the sea 'crawled up out of a puddle billions of years ago...' (whatever that actually means) but it suits his purposes to say it anyway.
The fact that he then goes on to say '
IF God made the sea...' - a hypothetical assertion - and does not provide any evidence to support it, despite 'evidence' being the point of the post, just goes to show how little effort he's putting into his blog these days. Honestly, I nearly didn't bother...
I almost miss
the good ol' days...
On a personal note; it is now a year since I first visited Ray's blog (formerly know as 'The Soap Box'), how the time flies...
Regards,
Matt
