"Two, evolutionary stories are fatally flawed in explaining the cosmos, the rock layers of the earth with their fossils, and the origin and diversity of living things."
"cosmos" = astrophysics
"rock layers" = geology
"diversity of life" = evolution
None of those three have anything to do with "origin of life."

Hey, it comes from Dr. Terry Mortenson.
Since he/she's a self-proclaimed doctor, it MUST be true!

God I love that song:
Everything you know is wrong
Up is down, black is white and short is long
And everything you used to think was so important
Doesn't really matter anymore because of the simple fact that
Everything you know is wrong

"One, true science powerfully confirms the literal truth of Genesis chapters 1–11."
No it doesn't. And no, you don't get to redefine what science is just so you can pretend your beliefs are scientifically accurate.
"Two, evolutionary stories are fatally flawed in explaining the cosmos, the rock layers of the earth with their fossils, and the origin and diversity of living things."
By definition, evolution cannot be flawed in cosmology or geology since it makes no mention of those things. Since you don't even know that, it's a waste of time for us to examine any of your claims about evolution since you obviously don't know what it is.

Well, fucking duh!
It's not about any of those.

"God has made an almost incomprehensibly complex creation for scientists to study."
Assertion. Care to substantiate this "god" of yours exists?
"Though lots of questions remain, two things are clear. One, true science powerfully confirms the literal truth of Genesis chapters 1–11."
Multiple branches of science, reality and common sense all directly contradict Genesis in its entirety.
"Two, evolutionary stories are fatally flawed in explaining the cosmos, the rock layers of the earth with their fossils, and the origin and diversity of living things."
Well, you're right about all of that except for that last part. Of course you look like an utter fool for spewing forth such ignorance but at least you were right, even if it's unintentional and you haven't a clue as to why you're right.
"Of course, that is no big surprise, since the Bible is the inerrant propositional revelation of the Creator."
Inerrant? The Bible? Oh, please...

what kicks of life in this so-called fairytale theory of evolution??.... Abiogenesis... and what is Abiogenesis??... a discredited load of rubbish...never been proven, never will be proven, unless the earth can give us the same atmospheric conditions as millions of yrs ago, the conditions scientists failed to recreate in their laboratories *smirk*.. and provide us with the building blocks in which to kick start this heaping pile of BS!

Evolution also doesn't explain auto repair, so it must be wrong.

If god made "incomprehensibly complex" things then god must be even more incomprehensibly complex. Where did THAT complexity come from? Until you religious nutcases can answer that question without invoking magic, faith, eternity or whatever else you want to pull out of your ass, this debate is over.
Complexity of this nature can arise only from a long, sustained period of accumluated changes. No other theory has ever been put forth. End of dicussion.

That's probably because evolution doesn't cover the origin or the Universe, geology, and the origin of life.

Dr. Mortenson, no matter how many times you say "inerrant", it won't make it true. Sorry.

Argument from incredulity
One, true science does no such thing.
Two, of the things mentioned, evolution only deals with 1 thing, the diversity, which is does quite a nice job of describing.
If this guy's bio has an shred of credulity, he's let his faith blind him.

You need a second *sshole right in the middle of your forehead so it's easier for your to spew this sh*t right into people's faces.
