I'm not a believer, but I can't honestly say either way. I do find it shocking that people won't accept the facts that prove things like fossils are millions of years old. Then again, the Jury is still out on science.

Most believers think evolution is the right track of how things became. It's mostly a certain variety of protestant Christians that believes in creationism, and they're a small fraction of believers as a whole.

As far as I know, most Catholics and Muslims believe in evolution.

Obviously I meant for the Summer Olympics, the winter Olympic success is the large population. Any large populated country that gets snow and has funding should be able to fall ass backward into some medals.

I hear you. I think the problem is people NEED TO FEEL they believe in something, when he fact of the matter is, most things aren't black or white.

But I guess that's why I'm an agnostic Independent. I come from a different viewpoint.

Yeah it is like that around here, but most people are quiet and believe what they believe and don't push it. It is the few that say stupid poop like that, that irritates me, she asked me to disprove for her that her god exists so I was forced to tell her if I did that, then she has to disprove that my god Pikkiwoki, the Papua New Guinean mud god did not exist. He promises me a goat and all the coconuts I can carry when I die, so essentially if her god exists, then so should mine right?

I was talking about Dinosaurs at work and I asked the question (because I wasn't sure) how long the Earth has been in existence. The Bible Thumper said "3000" years. My natural reaction was to laugh and call her an idiot except I'm in Management so I just said "oh yeah?" and walked away.

They must hate it when you tell them that Egyptian and Sumerian civilizations predate the existence of their Earth.

Exactly. Lumping all Christians, Muslims, etc. into one group who thinks the same just shows a lack of knowledge on the subject. A majority of moderate Christians believe in evolution of some sort and believe in science.

It's the kooks that you hear about all the time that give the rational religious a bad name.

It's like saying all Muslims are terrorists because a few are radical.

Dude you and I can change the world.

I'm going to sleep because it's so late here. You need to show up in Oilers blogs more often. We haven't nearly had enough discussions about hookers and blow as we usually do.

Stick around and you'll love it. Good night!

Time to get on my hate for our friends across the border. But seriously, I don't really enjoy the company of Americans. Many of them are arrogant and love guns. They sometimes are over weight as well. It can get a little sad to think about some of them. Once when I was a young gun I went on a trip to USA. I met an american guy who was roughly 382 lbs. He had red hair and a giant gap between his teeth. He smelled terribly. Like sweat and cheap beer. He told me he had once shot someone when he was drunk. I believe he was swearing sweat pants.

Once we beat Canada on Friday, yes, all of them.

We all know soccer is not a real sport, so it doesn't count.
