Cosmology (age of the universe, stars and galaxies created for our amusement, light was given a "head start" to reach us, all sorts of crazy ideas to keep the creation dream alive)

Evolutionary biology (we must reject macroevolution)
Quantam Mechanics (things don't come from nothing, therefore our understanding of the quantum world is wrong)
Geology/Paleantology (our dating methods are all innacurate, apparently there was a global flood too)

Quote:Yes, agreed, but this thread is more about benefits to society and you and me.
