That's all very interesting but what has that to do with when the Bible was compiled?I have more respect for these creationists than I do for your attempts to discredit them
so
are you that insecure in your beliefs that attacking theirs somehow validates yours?

I think I asked him that too, 2 years ago and don't seem to recall any particularly enlightening answer.That's not even an answer. The fact is, humans and chimps share a number of identical ERV sequences in the same locations, even though ERV insertion is random. So exactly what is the "creationist interpretation"? It's just a coincidence?

It was either an accurate factual statement or it wasn't, how is that a cheap shot? :think:you are the one who took a cheap shot about the bible
it doesn't matter when or how the bible became the bible

which
gives them a reason to believe
and
that threatens you
you have no reason

I don’t contest that I don’t believe in God. But I am glad to know that those Shintos who believe in Amaterasu, and those Buddhists who have the God Bosatsu, and those who hold to their God Zeus, and Hermes, and Thor, and Wotan – wow, they all have "a reasonable explanation" for how life started. Thanks very much.God is the only reasonable explanation
we know you don't have one
