gah!! Don't anyone take this personally but I can't believe how damn NARROW fundamentalist conservative Christians are!!!
You can explain to them all you like about how faith and science can interact perfectly and it only proves that God is a whole lot more mysterious and complex than we all thought. You can hand them all those great books like Rocks Of Ages by Stephen J. Gould...
But they REFUSE to listen and they won't even open your book because it's not what the bible says. That is that, NO opportunity to think as an intelligent being at all...
And then there's those poor brainwashed kids (sorry, but that is the best way of putting what the whole thing looks like to me) that cannot understand the difference between science and non-science.
It just dismays me to see that there are still people on this earth so hungry for power that they will completely brainwash their children and try to do the same to anyone else they come across...
I don't know if my God is the same of yours but at least mine permits freedom of thought.
Why would a God who is so correct allow us to question what is written about him??
I can see something like this...
God reads the Bible and thinks "Crikey, bloody editors/publishers have completely RUINED my book (as they do) and now the message is completely different to what I wanted to convey. Lucky my clever little humans are able to find things out for themselves and learn that this book is wrong is places."
