dhw: The Creationists will be disappointed now, but we move on. It seems to me that all the so-called discrepancies can be explained by the intelligent, inventive mechanism, whether this was designed by your God or not. “Contrived theory” is a term I don't know, though. Perhaps you could explain.-DAVID: Punc Eq is a contrived theory to try to explain speciation. When one sees species appearing in the fossil record without intermediates, something has to be invented to explain it. Thus the invention of Punc Eq. It only names what is seen, nothing more. Therefore contrived.-Ah! So God is a contrived theory to try to explain life. When one sees the complexity of life without any indication of its origins, something has to be invented to explain it. Thus the invention of God. In this case, it only names what is not known, nothing more. Therefore contrived. I understand it now. Thank you.
