Then it's a good thing the Bible never records the nation of god slaughtering masses of people and plundering their goods (and their virgin girls). I wonder if those actions ever "agreed with their reasons," or if they did it because disobeying the powerful god that told them to kill and plunder would have had disastrous consequences for 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."
