As in "some people believe in evolution and others believe in
creationism"?

What do *you* believe, Jeff?


I believe that if there is a god, he wouldn't want us to be stupid. A god
that
could create our world by tossing out a "big bang" would be very
impressive.
The god described in Genesis is a cute metaphor for children and very
simple
people. Not that I don't like Genesis - Its by far my favorite piece of
literature - but to teach it as literal truth to anyone older than 6 years
is
abuse.

You might be right. However, when people suggest that we have managed to
evolve over a period of 600,000 years, then I just laugh.
