. . . says the troll. How ironic.
Argumentum ad hominem.
Affirmation of consequent.
Apples/oranges
Looks like an appeal to probability fallacy. Shades of cum hoc ergo propter hoc also.

That does not define “His” identity. It describes any god from Allah to Zeus.
WADR, please do not presume that those that you are addressing with this eschatology you are promulgating either know of same or subscribe to same.
The only name I know is God. If you cannot cope with that, then I suspect we should end this conversation.
Too open-ended. God(s) come with theologies attached, by definition. I am sorry you do not wish to share this particular theology of yours with the board with which I am unfamiliar, but that is your choice.
One thing Carl Sagan said that I always found interesting is never left my mind, is that he actually believed in a God, and that someday a scientific discovery would be made that actually proved His existence...and I myself suspect that this thing will be discovered when scientists look harder at the properties of light. Without getting into it too deeply, there are some studies that seem to show that light “has a mind of its own”, or at least it seems to, under certain conditions. Anyway, anytime I hear that that scientists have made a new discovery about the properties of light, it commands my attention.
What difference does a person’s personal theology make in evalutation of the arguments they present?
Absolutely everything, especially when there are conflicts with particular theologies.
That means that any scientific theory would have to be evaluated according to whether the author hold the correct religious beliefs.
Affirmation of consequent.
Theological pissing match looking for a place to happen.
Argumentum ad hominem.
Smelly flame bait.
I think that’s what’s called a category error.

No.
Next question.
This is where I’m supposed to get mad about being called a troll, say something intemperate, and get banned or suspended.
That’s your call.
I only want answers to some of those questions I sent your way.
So then you agree that religion is not a replacement for science, nor should the Bible be used as a science book.

Most people will believe in God until they become immortal. One just doesn’t know what is on the other side.
