Why are we here? How was the universe formed? The same "meaning of life" question. My answer: It just is. Simplistic as hell, I know.

No need to apologize. It's a perfectly legitimate answer. In fact every single one of us takes exactly the same attitude toward any number of issues, even objectively important ones, that we don't have the time, need or interest to personally investigate and ponder. Everyone can't care about everything. It's neither productive nor desirable.

Our objection (that is of most FRevolutionists) is not to people having various answers and opinions, but to blatant lies and invidious misrepresentations made to the general public, and the intention to do so in curricula and textbooks as well.

We're going to continue to object to such, but you've no obligation to care or take interest.

Yea, I understand. But why should something that doesn't matter in the whole theater of life be such a divisive issue?

I mean, I understand it matters to many people. But what would happen if, say, someday Jesus appears or some inarguable evidence comes to light proving creationism or evolution? So what? I guess the creationist or evolutionist would get to say Nah-Nah-Nah but other that that what's the point?
