You stated yourself earlier in this thread that you used to be a "materialist in Sagan's church" ...

It's part of some kind of mantra they get from somewhere. I'm embarrassed to say what it reminds me of, but I won't let that stop me, of course.

In my misspent youth, I used to go in strip bars sometimes. (Blush!) The girls would try to talk to me and hustle me for some very expensive drinks. Would you believe that every one of those girls had just broken up with her boyfriend in the last week/month? Probably still true today, although my personal survey of the subject ended about 20 years ago.

I'm told--haven't checked this one out personally--that every criminal in the State Pen was framed, too.

Incredible numbers of the creos used to be evolutionisits until their minds expanded and they began to question. (If these are questioning minds, I'd hate to see "doctrinaire.")

Yeah, like all those brilliant "scientists" at places like "Creation Research Institute" who used to be "darwinists" until they discovered Noah's Ark. Funny thing about those scientists ... they never seem to make any scientific discoveries. I wonder why that is.

However, the most incredible part of this is the fact that after their conversion these ex-evolutionists have replaced what they knew about the Theory of Evolution with some comic book version thereof, because if they really were evolutionists back then, I simply cannot believe that they held the same views about the ToE as they do now.
