They obviously haven't evolved sufficiently to engage in critical thinking. I am a Christian but I engage in critical thought. I don't buy the 7 day story. This was told in a way that people at the time could understand.

These nutcases always talk big about how they are going to show that horrible anti-Christian so-and-so a thing of two and they always fizzle. There was the boycott of Disney because they have Gay day, etc. These always die out because there are not enough people willing to actually participate.

You ain't no freakin' Einstein, either, dude...eom Kolesar Sep 2012 #1
