Reading though these posts and just being here on AF in general has shown me that many of you cannot fathom anyone else searching for truth yet coming to a different conclusion than yourselves. So you assume the person never really searched for truth and just believe what they do for petty, simplistic reasons.

In response, I cna only repeat what I said earlier. I'm amazed that anyone, who doesn't lock themselves out from our scientific knowledge, can believe in any of the scripted gods. We're talking about a gap of 4,5 billion years and give or take 3000 years after all.
