and we see how they even deny science when it does not agree with their ego-entrenched positions.....sad really...but for them, as close to a concession as any other.

The flood happened when Exu urinated. He had been holding it in for a long time.

Some of us, on the other hand, actually prefer a religion that includes some type of correlation with reality.

I have no trouble with Carbon Dating. But one must have a knowledge of past events to come to the right conclusions. Some are willing to accept the data found in the Bible and others simply ignore it.

Is that to mean that if carbon dating says what nipper likes it is right, and if not it is wrong?
