What amazes me is that the same people who view this so-called scientific study -- which has not been published or replicated by the scientific community -- as the final word on creationism, are the same people that complain the loudest against the junk science used to prove global warming and the dangers of second hand smoke.

You have to understand that the ends (your salvation) justifies the means (Junk Science).

BUT also remember that believing in evolution is heresy and could land you in that eternal fire pit in a cell right next to Hitler Qusay and Uday ... after all ... one sin no matter how small or how heinous is all it takes to land you there ... forever ... no chance to learn the errors of your ways ... no chance to redeem yourself .... just pure revenge (/what a crock of crap mode OFF)

Yup, what ever happened to the all-loving, all-forgiving God that I learned about back in Sunday School. If the American Taliban had their way, I could expect to be dragged from my house in the middle of the night and stoned to death for even questioning the "science" of creationism.

I believe that it comes down to what you define as Evolution. Most here seem to classify EVERYTHING as (Godless) Evolution. There is sadly no tuck taken with the far more resonable view that God has intentionally created man in his (thinking) image over a long span of time. Still, the same sad polorization is out there in the schools. I just don't think it is fair to assume that if you view Creation as a parable for man's corrupt and wandering nature, you are classified as "Godless heathen".

At the risk of starting another flame war, what about the example cited in "Inherit the Wind:? The Bible says the Sun stopped in it's path across the sky. Do we suppose that it actually stopped? This would have been easier if the sun were a "bright light set in the glass domes of heaven" as some of the time might believe. However, recently we discovered that the Earth in fact rotates around the Sun. To stop it in its path, you would have to arrest the spin of the earth, resulting in continental plates and everything on them suddenly decelerating from high speed to nil. You would think a catastrophy like that would have been noticed.

Yup: this really proves YOUR point........
