I've always pointed out that the Bible is worse than Mein Kamph when it comes to morals. Hitler had the good graces to be euphemistic about genoicide. God explicitly endorses genocide and human sacrifice.
When the Gallup Poll asked people about their views on the subject last March, 47 percent of Americans polled said that God created humans pretty much in their present form some time in the last 10,000 years. That belief was strongest among those with less education, regular churchgoers, people 65 and older, and Republicans.
In other words, "the generally credulous". Gotcha.
There also will be an exhibit suggesting that belief in evolution is the root of most of modern society's evils. It shows models of children leaving a church where the minister believes in evolution. Soon the girl is on the phone to Planned Parenthood, while the boy cruises the Internet for pornography sites.
What I want to know is, are there significant numbers of these people who go to church every weekend?? I mean, I tried but it cut into my "online" time, IYKWIM, AITYD.
BTW, Megazone, have you heard from Rerob since WPI? He was in our tech writing courses. My username was kimshi back then, if you do not remember me. It's hard to forget someone that has only a first name :-).
Bummer about the lack of LJ. I guess everyone does not have one, even if it sometimes seems that way. If you happen to remember next time you see him, tell them Erik said "hey".
I make no promises that this journal will be timely and/or interesting - it is just what spills out of my brain. If you're someone you think I should 'friend', tell me who you are. Sometimes I can't tell by checking LJs of people who friend me. :-)
