Creationism
Man. If there is one thing that really irks me it is creationism.
Can I quote a bible. Right from the start.
1. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
OK. So god made light. Split it into day and night... lets skip forward a couple of days. maybe to the fourth...
14. And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15. And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
17. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18. And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19. And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
OK. so he makes day and night. After that he makes the sun and the moon...
um... I though the sun made day... and the lack of sun made night...
Is it just me or has the chicken come before the egg here.
Seriously. How did this happen. With a mistake that is so blantant on the first page. How is this movement taking off. I mean hell, your president believes in this crap.
Now, I am not here trying to offend people. I am not here to rubbish what you want to believe. What seriously troubles me is when it is said that actual science, you know, the one with actual evidence, is flawed because it goes against a book that has errors on it's first page.
I have a friend who went to a religous school. Now, her school forbid her and the other students to watch Jurassic Park because "Dinosaurs aren't in the bible so they never existed". Apparently all these bones everyone keeps finding everywhere are there to test our faith.uhuh. I wish I had a fall back line like that ever time I was wrong. Sorta like that "Oh... Yeah, I knew that, I was just testing you" thing that you use when you are in grade 4.
I've had enough. </rant>
