Quote:As for who told them that, one guesses it's Dad - a Dad like Pastor Randy Wilson, who started the Purity movement and has five daughters enrolled.I don't find it terribly surprising that a neurotic fundamentalist with five daughters would found a whole movement dedicated to keeping those filthy boys out of their pants. I would hate to be one of his sons, though.
"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."
