If that’s a steelman then it’s definitely at forging temperature (which jet fuel btw can achieve easily), collapsing under its own weight.
Try this: Is it consistent to believe that evolution is the means by which God created, and continues to create, creatures? Does “well evolution just happens” have more, less, or equally much of an argument for itself? Note: Blindly assuming naturalism instead of God’s will doesn’t count because neither of those are falsifiable.
Thing is: There’s more than one way to connect the data points into an overall theory. Those theories try to explain the data points by starting from made-up axioms, and naturalism is just as much made-up as the Spaghetti monster. Unless you want to posit some kind of Platonism?

I don’t understand. I simply agreed with the previous poster. Do you disagree with anything I wrote?
So that wasn’t sarcasm? Interesting. Possible instance of backwards causation, the physicists will be ecstatic.
Not quite sarcasm, not quite reductio ad absurdum. It’s just a reminder of certain psychological realities.
Don’t see how you get that.
