: That God oversaw the human writers is, I guess, an article of faith, but supported by the accuracy and consistency of the gospel accounts, something that is absent from the non-canonical books.
+
: I've dealt above with your claim that evolution is not random. It is, because it lacks design, by definition. So my claim that Occam's Razor favours creation stands.
+
: Do the non-euclidean geometries have no new assumptions associated with them? What were the assumptions dropped?
+
: Okay, so Augustine wasn't going against 2 Corinthians 10:4-5. It was the other possibility that I suggested: that you misrepresented him. In the passage you quoted, he is arguing against Christians trying to defend ''incorrect'' views by quoting the Bible. He specifically calls these people "reckless and incompetent expounders of Holy Scripture" and says that they are "talking nonsense". There's nothing there about "more than one legitimate view" and nothing against trying to disprove anti-biblical accounts.
