Quote:Augustine castigated those who made the Bible teach bad science, John Calvin argued that Genesis reflects a commoner's view of the physical world,
But modern fundamentalism has nothing to do with Calvin or Augustine. It is a late 19th/early 20th reaction among the ignorant who prefer fairy tales to reality. One has to laugh when these baptist shitheads start in with their "old time religion" routine. When the lunatics were railing against evolution at the Scopes trial the whole movement was about 20 years old.
