I finally got around to watching the Stephen Hawking documentary where he describes why you don't actually need a God hypothesis in order for the Big Bang to happen. My (rather lay) understanding of quantum mechanics can see his point. Without the variable called time, you cannot have premeditated creation. The good news about that would be to free religious people to, as Don eloquently describes it , see scripture as a book of interesting questions as it seems to be the case that it certainly isn't a book of answers. So, the Anglicans are getting there and the Catholics did once have a female Pope. Ok, inadvertently, but by their logic it was the will of their God. If only someone could slip a line in future editions saying bigotry is arrogance and vanity, and his big balls of fire are awaiting those who discriminate.
