There’s a good chance that he won’t answer, because a yes answer would lead to request for empirical evidence.

"There’s a good chance that he won’t answer, because a yes answer would lead to request for empirical evidence."

Truth will always lead to God, which is why in the end when Christ returns, all the knowlege of mankind is reduced to nothing.

"I shall destroy the wisdom of the wise and bring to nothing all the learning of the learned." 1 Cor.1:19

The more these evolutionists try to find some sort of proof to disprove god, the further from truth they get. In fact they reject any science that suggest creationism, and in doing so, ensure they will continue to drift further and further from the truth.

God Himself separated the camps of scholarship and faith and directed that they should oppose each other until the End. As a result, the frontal assault on faith that currently emanates from the intellectual community follows a plan fore-ordained by heaven.

"The wisdom of its sages shall decay, the intelligence of its intelligent men shall be shrouded." (Is.29:14).

Scholarship, by itself, of course, is not the problem. God created the world, and so discovery should always lead toward God, not away from Him. The fault lies in the agenda of those who manage the way it is pursued, interpreted and dispensed. It is the sustained effort by most academic leaders to deny and discredit God that has driven the intellectual community to the foot of Satan's altar.

If knowledge were as perfect as faith, all questions would lead us to God, but our knowledge is always wrong, so the answers lead us astray.
Because it is perfect and without error of any kind, the word of Jesus is a truth that can never change. By contrast, the truth that comes out of the schools changes constantly.

Every textbook is outdated (and therefore false) the moment it is published. New knowledge has passed it by -- and will always pass it by -- through a process that will be repeated over and over again until the end, showing that human knowledge is always in orbit around truth but can never touch it.

For this reason, a ten year old textbook is useless and a hundred year old one an object of ridicule. And a hundred years from now, it would be the same all over again. Today's truth in this world will always be tomorrow's error. Yet it is Jesus who is rejected, while the errant scholarship is retained.

So while knowledge has no power to lead us to God, it has a great power to lead us away from Him because it brings doubt to faith. (2 Thes.2:9-12). "Make no mistake about it: if any one of you thinks of himself as wise...then he must learn to be a fool before he can be wise. Why? Because the wisdom of this world is foolishness to God." (1 Cor.3:18).
