Forum Folks, science majors & especially Dennis and Ray,
Thank you for the comments and especially for the cautions.
It is obvious that Dr. Ross is talented and has a wide understanding of the various disciplines.
However, please also note, those of you who are science buffs, that most of this data is way
beyond the grasp of 99% of Christians who believe in a God even if they believe some error.
My point is that a reader must have had several years of science training to apply Dr. Ross'
explanation to their own life experience. One example being "homochirality" and its relation to
the existence of peptides, sugars and protein molecules.
In my never to be humble opinion ;o), Dr. Ross is doing a fairly good job of playing up to the
average evolutionist as a fair minded critic and may lead a few of them to think for themselves,
but our understanding of God's purpose, as simple as it is and as much of a gift to us as it is, is so
much deeper in its grasp of truth to be beyond comparison.
So, I agree with Dennis that we hold onto our personal views and perhaps make personal notes
for comparison after the conference, just to see how our understanding may have changed with
meditation and prayer.
Many of us or even most of us on the forum, have a special interest in this area of study, but
we may want to focus more on the fact that the Creator of the Universe has called us into
a special advanced study class organized and presented for our enlightenment and admonition by
His perfect son our Lord Jesus and it's a new revelation every day.
Thanks for considering my thoughts, Indianabob
