“For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountain of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries.”-—Robert Jastro (NASA scientist, populist author and futurist.)
I typically stay out of evolution threads. There is no such thing as evolution as it is put forth by those who believe it. God didn’t need evolution nor did He use it. And yes I believe the earth we live on is billions of years old.
