then you'll see that there is a very exciting time coming soon, because either Israel will be totally destroyed (i.e. it was all coincidence, Yahweh loses- therefore he can't really exist!) or, the kingdom will be here.
The thought of a general war in the Mid-East makes me feel many things, but excited is not among them.
"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."
