Your attempts to deny the outright superstition that underpins religious

believe in creationism and believe the earth is less than 10,000 years old?


Harry, you come on here to make some boastful statement about the views of a select few then you want to put me on trial for my thoughts?

Wow!


BTW-Ever hear of this guy? I figured a link would be sufficient.

By select few, are you referring to the several Greeks I mentioned,
considered for thousands of years the greatest thinkers of their era?

Tell me you are not.

I don't want to put you on trial for anything. We were talking about
superstitions that underpin religion. Well, believing in creationism and
believing the earth is less than 10,000 years old is believing in
superstition.

Thank goodness for Edwards v. Aguillard.
