I get so frustrated with people who criticize something they don't understand that challenges their religious beliefs. With that statement I'd like everyone who thinks evolution means "we came from monkeys" and who doesn't understand the shared people and stories of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, to all STFU and go to the library before they pass judgment.

I live by the first sentance, it's how I can be a scientist and have a Faith at the same time.

And as for the second - one of my biggest pet peeves when people think the theory of evolution means we came from monkies. HATE IT.

And as for Drolefille's dinosaurs - the only time I was ever excused from a class in high school was my freshman religion class, when the ancient nun insisted that fossils and dinosaurs were a hoax, a clever science fiction story in the works. We obviously didn't agree. My private Catholic high school also taught evolution, and this lady was a whack job. (Of course, she also roller skated through the lunch room playing an accordian at the same time - no joke, it was her yearly thing).

OMFG you got to live Sister Act! Jealous of the Sister Mary Clarence action.



That's it, I am emailing you my Jesus Pony pictures. You're now in my special club. I think for us though, we have a hands on relationship with the fossil record. No Archbishop Ussher can tell me any different about things I've touched and uncovered with my own hands and trowel. I did meet someone in the field who really though people and dinos lived together, and I couldn't believe they were working with science. The Flintstones and Land of the Lost are not documentaries.

Her name was Sister Mary Bernita, and we called her Sister Bernita. She was pushing 70 back in '95, and I think she's still alive. (shiver) And I think I really do need to see Jesus Pony pictures, will make my Monday much better!

Someday VS, if you're ever in the Greater Cinci area, you and me, we're going to the Creation Museum in Northern Kentucky!!!!
