Oh, they believe it alright. That's the scary part, it's the 21st Century and we're still deluged with people who buy into this medieval stuff. I remember this teacher when I was just a kid whose response to someone's question as to why God didn't always answer your prayers told us with a straight face that God always answers prayers, it's just that sometimes the answer is no. Then we got asked what God's phone number was. When all she got was a room full of 9 year olds with dumbfounded looks she made the sign of the cross. Gotta love those nuns. Anyways, I got myself sent to the principal because I could not help but ask "Excuse me sister- What's the area code?"
Had a hard time sitting down the rest of the day. Can't win 'em all.
