5 Levels of the Faith. My personal observation.
#6
RE: 5 Levels of the Faith. My personal observation.
There is also #7. The legitimate deity who suffered a cosmic concussion when slipping into our dimension and believes that he's just another human being, living out his life on Earth. The day he comes around and realizes who he really is, he'll probably cause the solar system to collapse in upon itself. And then, he'll... well, I'm not sure what he'll do then, and I don't care, since I'll just be a puff of ash floating around in space.
"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."
