Rich, I recommend you brush up your knowledge of religion, using the following suitably informative tome, then get back to me.

I have to defend the Docman here - not that he needs defending but he seems to being attcked by a couple of people with their own agenda which has precious little to do wity what the Docman has actually posted.
And without a basic grasp of logic or facts!!!!!!!!1

What the hell are you talking about?
Who's attacking anyone?
Any of my comments were clearly made tongue-in-cheek and I haven't had an 'agenda' since the last meeting I was forced to attend.

VoidCranium, I have no problem with folks who take the view that BECAUSE OF THEIR FAITH they believe that evolution is shaped by the hand of God - the UNSEEN hand. My problem is with those who toss the baby out with the bath water. Because evolution sounds like science to them and they just KNOW they are supposed to follow religion, they close their minds to other concepts. Then they try to prove the unprovable rather than realize (pardon the misquote) "There is more to Heaven and Earth than is dreamt in your philosophy, Horatio."
For instance, the REALLY stupid types won't even contemplate the chance that evolution was created by God specificially for our benefit so we could learn about disease control through genetics and biochemical pathway analysis. Both of which come from studying evolution.
To be honest, the STUPIDEST guy I ever heard was pushing his book on a radio talk show. His idea that the dinosaur extenction occurred because the earth condensed to about 1/2.3 of its original size AFTER dinosaurs appeared, and this condensation was what killed them off. What a moron. He did something I had previously thougnt not possible. He used worse scientific logic than a rabid Intelligent Design Creationist out to "prove" his position. I tried to call in but they must have sensed I was antagonistic when I declined to accept a copy of the schmuck's book in the pre-call screening.
In any case, my own agenda - since this isn't the techie side of the forum - is merely to comment in passing on the stupidity of some folks who make up rules and then don't follow them. (Hey, Colin and Rich - if you want to bash GWB with THAT particular club, go right ahead. In THIS case I won't defend him.)

Its you argueing with something you pretty much say is self evident - so you tell me????
I can only summise from the above - that either you are really stupid or have some agenda - which is it?
You seem to be denying the agenda part ? Hmmmmmm - ok.

Isn't that what the BIG BANG theory is based on?
One atom exploding... I read all the time in science journals how scientist are watching the universe EXPAND.
Of course the one question they hate to be asked is:
Into WHAT is the universe expanding?
