Since when did anyone actually read anything I wrote??? I'm impressed... ;) Look, all I am saying is that I believe in a higher power. Do I believe that a super power created everything in the universe by hand, and in 6 days? No. I believe that the force which formed and structured everything in the universe, was intentional, and that the path is set. I believe that the universe and everything around us continues to evolve, and as far as man goes, I believe we have the ability to either adapt (read: evolve) or perish. For the record, I believe in Black Holes and to a degree, evolution. I'm not so sure about the crawling out of the sea thing, but I was in a branch of service that did a lot of that, so maybe there is something to it. ;) Also, there was something pretty fishy about my exwife, and she couldn't swim, so, who knows. ;) And as far as there being a Big Bang and then creation of life, I don't know many parents who never experienced that. ;) I'm in favor of leaving religion for seminaries and sunday school, and for keeping the science in science. I don't want religion jammed down my grandkids throats, but on the other hand I don't want them to be force fed only one side in an 'educational' setting. I want my kids to hear ALL points of view, the good and the no so good. I want them to ask questions, and I want someone who will give them the straight scoop. I want my kids to form their own opinions based on a 'fair and balanced' education. None of this one sided crap. If someone can come up with a way to present both sides and leave the religion thing out of it, then I'm fine with that. Quoting Richard Tenney <retenney@yahoo.com>:
