<<"e.g. the earth is NOT at the center of the universe" If you're referring to the point of the "big bang" as the center, yeah, but from our perspective, the Earth is the center of what we know. We do know the sun does not revolve around the Earth, though.>> Koan: I was referring to the churches torturing and killing people who dared to disagree with them in the midddle ages like Galileo and Copernicus. <<"blood letting is NOT a good medical process" Except when it is. ;-) koan: "Common practise in the middle ages. <<"and our existence is NOT the result of some god, but rather evolution." Not mutually exclusive propositions. Evolution is compatible with many theories of existence that attribute a critical role to a deity. See, for example, theistic evolution and evolutionary creationism. Not mutually exclusive, but one has massive evidence and it all makes sense. The other idea makes no sense at all. so which is more likely? cheers,-lol
