He thinks it best that there are just some things we don't need to know.

Fundies really do cheer human ignorance -- they seem to revel in it. Learning new things is a threat to them and their religious beliefs. Scarey people.

I wouldn't classify myself as a "fundie" but as a Christian I have no problem with the concept of a God who is all-knowing, all-powerful, and ever-present. He stands outside our boundaries of time and knowledge.

I fully believe that the search for truth in science will only point to God the creator. I'll admit that maybe all the knowledge is out there for man to discover. But when I hear of the search for something called the "God Particle" I tend to think that it's less about a quest for knowledge than it is about the quest for the "power" to create.
