[freedumb2003]

A couple of college degrees, successful in my career, landowner, etc, etc. but because I choose a worldview different from how you think, I'm stupid. So be it.

A "worldview" that includes willful ignorance. All the degrees in the world merely mean you are educated not knowledgable.

If your "wordlview" said that angels keep airplanes aloft (which is essentially the same as gainsyaing TToE) and you had a PhD, it wouldn't change the result: willful ignorance is the same as stupidity and ignorance (rolled up into one).

Yes, often before setting out on my travels my family and I and our pastor, if he's around, pray the "traveller's psalm". Wonderful psalm

Psa 121:1

[[A Song of degrees.]] I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

Psa 121:2 My help [cometh] from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

Psa 121:3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

Psa 121:4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

Psa 121:5 The LORD [is] thy keeper: the LORD [is] thy shade upon thy right hand.

Psa 121:6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

Psa 121:7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

Psa 121:8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
