Well, MM, don't give up the search. Better yet, let God find you.

I'm not hiding. In 60 years, it hasn't happened.

I am always amused by the worries of anti-evolutionists about "the nazi, communist, secular humanist, anti-semitic, anti-Christian plot to fluoridate the water supply."

The anti-evolutionists often post this amusing argument: "Hitler accepted evolution. Hitler was a bad man. Therefore, evolution is evil."

It is a nutsy argument on 10 different levels. There is no evidence that Hitler understood anything about biological science; he studied as an art student. He was raised as a Catholic and reasserted his faith many times. He did not persecute Catholics during his regime (he was interested in his power, and eliminated anybody who challenged his power, equally whether they were Lutherans, Jews, Orthodox, or non-believers.)

mlc9852 posts an argument along the lines: Hitler promoted nazism/fascism. Hitler loved his mother and roses. Therefore evolution is demonstrated as evil.

From this "argument", I can equally conclude that my Mom is evil. Not to mention roses. Be very careful what you say in reponse!
