No I'm not going to argue because while I am willing to acknowledge that the theory of evolution, or indeed anything that I believe in, is not absolute you are not willing to acknowledge this. As such arguing in favour of anything that contradicts the literal interpretation of genesis that you have against you is pointless.

Also the only way for two observations to be irreconcilably contradictory is if the laws of logic are broken. Otherwise it merely means that are currently established theories are flawed and should be modified or discarded.

You weren't arguing in favor of evolution, you were arguing that it was science, which does not, one way or the other, contradict the Bible.

I gave the possibility the divine as being the reason for two contradictory observations; logic is not broken. Modifying or discarding one of them would contradict the assumption science makes (that the empirical method is a trustworthy method).  You're left with either discarding science or accepting the supernatural.

Can you give me an example of such a contradictory observation (doesn't have to be a real example - just one which doesn't break the laws of logic and would cause either discarding science or accepting the supernatural).
