so you see that evolutionists put the bedrock of their belief on the material world.
Uh, no.
When I play Monopoly, I play by the rules of Monopoly, and when I play chess I play by the rules of chess. I do not play by the rules of Monopoly when I play chess, nor vice versa. It would make no sense.
In the same way, when I try to understand the natural world I apply the rules of the natural world, and when I try to understand the spiritual world I apply the rules of the spiritual world (which are much less precise and have no consensus, but that's another matter). I do not apply the rules of the natural world when trying to understand the spiritual world, nor vice versa. It would make no sense.
Those who think there is no natural world and no spiritual world, just one world with one set of rules - well, good luck with that. It makes as much sense as combining Monopoly and chess.
