Believing in Intellgent Design and accepting the theory of Evolution are not mutually exclusive positions.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Worked up or entertained..?
There's a difference

Key Point:
Understanding that Noah's ark and Adam and eve aren't necessarily relevant to "God" existing is important
Combining the belief in god with a bunch of horse sh!t children's stories
and essentially cosmic Santa Claus actually hurts the God & Evolution debate

You can't seem to overcome the boredom threshold. If you're going to try this you have to at least be more entertaining than Alphie. :ohno:
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by c squared. Then you energy.
