re: #580 ggt
I still don’t understand the controversy. Evolution vs. Creationism.
I don’t see how the two are mutually exclusive and probably never will.
In order to accept Creationism, you have to believe that a deity created the world we live in out of whole cloth, as it is now. Dinosaurs, fossils, the idea that the Earth is more than a few thousand years old, etc. — these are tricks being played by the devil to fool you into not seeing God in everything.
Evolution disagrees with all that, so it’s a threat to the biblical fundamentalists who embrace Creationism.
