When they come up with one with more ego appeal and less holes in it, you’ll see the ToE dropped like a hot rock from Hades. My prediction is probably it will be that an ‘alien’ from another galaxy will come and take credit for dropping the first couple here 6,000 years ago, explain the Bible was written by his inspiration, and that he is not only the OT God but the long awaited Messiah. He will have unlocked the secrets of miracles and perform wonders before an adoring crowd of true believers. Jesus will probably be proclaimed an imposter and the Antichrist will take his place.

From that same post:
[In response to a use named Barbarian who wrote: Coffin said the evidence showed millions of years at least. He prefers his reading of Scripture, but he freely admits that without scripture, he would think it was much older.]
"With all due respect to Mr. Coffin, he doesn?t look old enough to making that evaluation. Who on earth actually knows what a million year old anything looks like? Unless he has seen God, I doubt that he has seen anything older than this planet and everything on it, which is well under 10 thousand years old, according to my experts who wrote Genesis. "
I'm picking up some circular reasoning...
"When they come up with one with more ego appeal and less holes in it..."
So, he freely admits that ID has holes in it. Not just holes, but so many that a preferable theory is one with "less holes," as opposed to "very few holes" or even "no holes." I know that evolution has its holes too, but I fail to see how something as anti-scientific as "if we can't explain it, a higher power must do it" has any holes other than the huge gaping one which literally qualifies it as anti-science. I also fail to see how that can be closed short of the appearance of the Intelligent Designer.
Hehe. Makes me think of the Raelians, a sect pretty known around here.
The Raelians believe that Aliens genetically created mankind and sent, among others, Jesus and Rael (the current sect leader) to lead us...
Is Rael the antichrist? Needs pondering...
“When they come up with one with more ego appeal and less holes in it, you’ll see the ToE dropped like a hot rock from Hades.”
By ‘ego appeal’ you mean ‘not having to believe in (your) skybeast.’ But plenty of theists find evolution acceptable.
As for holes, most of the ones i’ve ever seen ‘found’ in evolutionary theory are based on either
1) the finder not understanding what the fuck they’re talking about’
or 2) the theory not being compaitable with a literally reading of scripture.
Neither of which is an actual HOLE in the TOE.
“My prediction is probably it will be that an ‘alien’ from another galaxy”
Why would someone who could travel between galaxies and live over 6000 years pick THIS planet to seed with humans?
“will come and take credit for dropping the first couple here 6,000 years ago, explain the Bible was written by his inspiration, and that he is not only the OT God but the long awaited Messiah.”
So, your prediction for the ToE being replaced is that you’ll receive solid evidence for at least part of Creationism?
"He will have unlocked the secrets of miracles and perform wonders before an adoring crowd of true believers.”
Right now true believers are out there that think Trump is chosen by god, so convincing them isn’t much of a challenge, is it?
“Jesus will probably be proclaimed an imposter and the Antichrist will take his place.”
Ah. So Genesis AND Revelation will be validated, thus doing not a fucking thing to the observations that made up ToE…?
Confused?
