PBS "What about god?"

[Crossless2.0]

So, Ken says to ask "Were you there?"

Was he "there" when his sky-daddy poofed everything into existence? Was anyone? You'd think that there would be one xtian asswipe in the room who would have that simple observation cross their tiny, bigoted, minds but no. The brainwashing is successful.

I can only hope that if I am on trial for a capital offense, and there are no eye witnesses, that Ken Ham is in the jury pool. With his sophisticated understanding of forensic science, I'll be guaranteed at least a hung jury.

Juror #1: "Well, his DNA is all over the crime scene. His fingerprints are on the weapon. And there's a blood trail leading to his house. Looks pretty cut and dried to me."

Ham: "Yeah, but were you there? I don't think we have enough to draw a conclusion. Let's pray on it."

Think I must have blanked out the Ham, I thought the students interesting, personal opioion though. The thought that proven scientific theory is new to people at college level, terrifies me. Granted I had something of a brain meldown with quantum mechanics, but I knew a little first I knew what to expect.

What's it like for them to learn about the majesty of evolution for the first time ???

Yeah, Min, terrifies me. Wish I could say I surprised me but it doesn't.

But I'd love to experience such a sense of wonder again. When I read Dawkins "Greatest Show on Earth" I got out of bed at 1AM with a flashlight to find woodlice, imagne the wonder at having the whole majesty unveiled at one time.
