Thanks for posting that. I've never ceased to be amazed at how many things folks can be so adamantly misinformed about. And yes I meant adamantly misinformed. It seems that for some folks, once they've made up their minds about something, there is simply nothing that's going to change that POV. And without a lick of evidence, they pigeonhole wide swaths of people into their inflexible world view. ...."We the undersigned, Christian clergy from many different traditions, believe that the timeless truths of the Bible and the discoveries of modern science may comfortably coexist.".... I've never been to a church service of any denomination that even hinted this was not so. And I've been to my share of them over the years. So why do so many non-believers essentially paint all Christians with a broad brush that this just isn't so? Funny thing though. Many of these same people who are adamantly convinced that Christians eschew scientific discoveries about our origins happen to also fervently, indeed religiously believe in many of the already thoroughly discredited Vast Right Wing Conspiracies. Go figure.
