"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Quote:Connecticut’s ‘best pastor’ charged with stealing $170,000 from elderly churchgoer
Quote:A Baptist pastor in Connecticut was arrested this week after being accused of stealing more than $170,000 from an elderly woman who was a member of his church.
According to Attorney Joseph Mager, who is currently serving as conservator for the victim, a probate judge first noticed inconsistencies in the woman’s bank account while 67-year-old Stratford Baptist Church Pastor Robert Genevicz was the acting conservator in 2013.

Millions? Us? Her fucking Bible pretty clearly states that it's to be 144,000.
And that's 144,000 Jewish male virgins.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

Wow. What a coincidence. Just yesterday, I suggested in jest, "maybe the plane was raptured". There's no parody that won't be taken seriously by the religious these days.

That's not the way you do it... you convince her to give everything to the church. That way you still get the money and avoid jail time.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Quote:VA Christian school bans 8-year-old girl because her tomboy looks aren’t ‘biblical’
Quote:An 8-year-old girl in Virginia has been told that she can not return to her Christian school because she defied “biblical standards” by looking like a boy.
Doris Thompson told WSET that her granddaughter, Sunnie Kahle, was forced to enroll in public school and has been refused admission for the next school year until she can express the proper gender identity.
“You’re probably aware that Timberlake Christian School is a religious, Bible believing institution providing education in a distinctly Christian environment,” a letter from Timberlake Christian School’s principal said.

To be fair to the school, a pair of knee pads can't be that expensive.
