"I am neither a theologian nor the son of a theologian, so I will not attempt to defend my interpretation of the text to you. I have shared it; it makes sense to me. If you don't like it, I can live with that. If you can enlighten me, I will give careful consideration to what you have to say."
Before I can "like it" or try to "enlighten" you about an alternative, I have to understand your position; before I can understand you have to explain it, something you have avoided, and continue to avoid, doing. At the very least you could answer my questions, but you barely acknowledge I have even asked any questions. I would expect that professionalism and common courtesy would prompt you to provide answers, but I cannot force you to. All I can do is ask my questions again and hope that this time you will finally answer them.
Please explain how God uses genes as vehicles of communication with His creation.
If God is not a flesh-and-blood human being, then in what way are we made in the physical image of God?
