Almost all of us on this thread have debated the issue of evolution ad nauseam. None of us have anything new to add, do we? Has anyone's mind been changed by these evo threads? Mine certainly hasn't.

Some lurkers may have. A lot of good information appears in these threads. You may be very closed minded to the subject (I was too when I was a fundie) but most people are pretty open minded.

I'm open minded. I believe the Bible is true.

That wins the ironic quote of the month award.

I agree, which is one of the reason I usually read these threads when I come across them. I rarely comment on the threads, as they tend to be brutal.

You may be very closed minded to the subject (I was too when I was a fundie) but most people are pretty open minded.

I never got any "fundie" indoctrination when I was young, but instead I was indoctrinated with TOE, as well as the beginning of life business that supposedly isn't taught as having anything to do with it. In my youth I was close minded, blinded by science & other junk.

Secularization of education forces compartmentalization of thought, no less than any fundamental religion. The ability to jump from one compartment to the other is not open minded. Rip down all of the barriers to allow thought to flow freely between them & we can talk.
