5. Ray Comfort speaks from a purely religious point of view in which FAITH is the central feature.
Edited on Wed Nov-04-09 11:39 AM by Ozymanithrax
He can only understand God in the light of his faith, because God demands that "only through faith" the blind acceptance of an idea that can not be proved, will he be saved.

In his world view, he doesn't need to understand evolution because his faith requires that he be against it.

If he can argue for the existence of God without understanding the how or why of God, then, in his world view, he can argue against evolution without having a clue. You can not convert the Christian to science by arguing logic. Faith and scientific evidence are mutually exclusive.
