Evolution took a long time (Introduction)

DAVID: Generally no fault, with this minor point: God possibly has traits in common with humans, but we cannot assume that He does in discussing His motives.

dhw: When I say perhaps he has traits in common, that is the same as “possibly has traits in common”, and when I say “perhaps he does not”, that automatically precludes assumptions of any kind. Hypotheses are not assumptions. Thank you for accepting this summary, and for conceding earlier that your beliefs concerning God’s nature and motivation are mere guesses. I will remind of you this next time you make vehement, authoritative statements about God’s nature and motivation!

I will be vehement if you try to humanize His thought patterns.
