Evolution of the Mindless
What is it with Creationists? I'm still in shock over reading the figures that over one-third of Americans believe that the world was created in the last 10,000 years, based on a the bible story of Genesis which, in fact, contradicts itself. This is only one of many contradictions that exist in the Bible. I'm too tired to go searching for the rest, but if pressed, I will do it. If anyone can cite other such passages, feel free to send them or comment here.
Back to the topic at hand. This bizarre minority of Americans still manage to convince school boards to add stickers to text books that read, "This textbook contains material on evolution. Evolution is a theory, not a fact, regarding the origin of living things. This material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully and critically considered."
Thank heavens for that heathen, liberal-slanted judicial system. This is an all-important victory: Judge Rejects Georgia School Board Evolution Stand.
I just resent the fact that the ACLU actually has to take these pinheads to court to force them to get rid of these stickers. Figure it out, people, Genesis is a story—one the Jews borrowed from the Phoenicians. At least part of it is. The apple and Tree of Life story is a metaphor, and a misogynistic one at that, too.
God took Her sweet time creating the earth before She got around to creating mankind from the proto-chimpanzee. About 4.5 billion years. Considering that She's eternal, 4.5 billion years probably seemed to her like, what? About 7 days?

Hmmm...Interesting.
I was watching some channel the other day,and they were talking about how they have definately found where Noah's Ark is located.They say it's buried under some mountain/snow in Iraq,but the ppl won't let them dig it up.They say it's sacred ground and won't let anyone touch it.I thought that was pretty neat to hear....if it's really true,that is.

Contradictions in the bible. No, say it can't be. LOL. Hmmm. you really shouldn't have asked.
Gen2:17 said Adam will die when he eats the fruit but Gen 5:5 has him living to 930 years old.
Gen 37:36 said that Joseph was sold into captivity by the Midianites and Gen 39:1 says it was the Ishmaelites.
Gen 1:3 says let there be light and there was light but Gen 1:14 says god didn't create the sun, moon, and stars until the 4th day.
Oh my need I go on? The creation theory is so one of the ludicrous things in Xtianity. Yet some still cling. Is that the creationist on the far left of that row of apes?
