I had to chime in to say that the debate over evolution might be the biggest thing that turns me off to religion. The literal interpretation of the bible has always scared me, considering the history of the book and the inaccuracies and contradictions within its own pages. I don't understand how buying into evolution would diminish God. I would think the opposite were true. Evolution would be far more impressive a feat than just throwing everything down at once, never to change.

I really should ask my old roommate, who majored in biology and religion (and who is now getting his doctorate in microbiology), to get in on an evolution debate. That would be interesting, as he has strong feelings on it.

Oh, and I'd like to say that I'm terrified of that museum of ID that has exhibits depicting humans riding dinosaurs. What would normally be quite funny is instead very scary.
