I'm sick of religious binary thought!

 Not necessary, we know God created the universe and we need not speculate on what we already know as fact.

Could you elaborate a bit more on your statement, Godscreated? For example, does your statement only apply to people who interpret reality in a theistic manner? Is it possible to prove the truth of your statement without relying on faith to some degree?

 I wouldn't call it a theistic interpretation or manner. Literal biblical Christians see it the same way. The only thing I can offer you is a DVD called the 'Star of Bethlehem,' in which a man named Rick Larson studied astronomy for many years and comparing it to the Bible to offer us evidence of the creation. He used the Bible as an absolute guide, the astronomy had to line up with the Bible or the 'Star' would have been considered a miracle of the time. Instead he shows how God knew from His creation what the 'Star" would be without using a miracle other than the orderly miracle of creation and God's absolute knowledge of the movement of His creation. It will be up to you to decide if it's proof or not.

Talk about religious binary thought; I was flipping through the channels this morning on my way into work and stopped on a religious station. Yes, I listen to stuff like that sometimes because I do like different opinions… any way, the guy actually said (no freaken joke) “Science is a human project so it is inherently flawed and cannot be taken at face value. Science cannot explain everything that our lord created as clearly as the scripture.”

Yep, those fucking goat herders knew their shit, I tell ya!


(I'd be hilarious actually if it wasn't so sad hearing grown people say stuff like that)
