re: #297 Summer

I like how Dawkins addresses the question of “belief” in Evolution. I get asked that a lot, as if it is some sort of act of faith or something. I usually ask them if they “believe” in Relativity, or Gravity, or Atoms in reply.

They don’t ever, however, appear to understand.

When I get asked that question I say, “no- I accept the veracity of evolution.”

It’s not a belief, so I don’t use those words. I try to correct them.
