Since you don't believe in the fossil record, do you think there is some sort of conspiracy of Satanists manufacturing the fossils in a secret laboratory somewhere? Another conspiracy? Have you ever been to a natural history museum, or taken university classes in archaeology or anthropology? Tom, suit your self on whether you believe in creationism. But at least be honest about what it is--a belief system without any basis whatsoever in fact, or science. And please also consider that most Christians believe in evolution, and do not take the Bible story of creation literally. It is a FABLE, allegory, fairy tale, mythological story, whatever!!! That does not mean it is not possible that God created the world, simply that he did not create it in six days. How big did you say that ark was?

Tom: I read the URL you posted. What an example of self-delusion. Do you also believe (as the christian church taught for centuries out of ignorance and fear of losing power) that the earth is flat, that the earth is the center of the universe, that all things -- including the sun and the planets -- revolve around earth? If your answer is no, that is only because you live in the 20th century. If you had lived 500 years ago you would've said yes, and pointed out scripture to "prove" it. As far as scientific issues, the bible has massive mistakes in it because it was written by ignorant men, not an omniscient god. FT
