Thread Name: BS: Evolution is Here to Stay
Subject: RE: BS: Evolution is Here to Stay
I stand with a pendulum juuuuussssssstt touching my nose, and with my head frimly held in position by a metal device. The pendulum swings away from me. I KNOW it will not come back and smash me in the nose. However, on its inward swing I don't doubt I would blink.

On a calm day I jump from an airplane. I KNOW I will fall towards the Earth.

With the above two examples, poor as they are, I put my trust in science and my observations over the years. I say trust because I do not understand the math/physics that is used to explain gravity. Just because I don't understand it doesn't mean I don't believe in the predicted results.

I a spiritual way, God is like that for me. I accept it, even though I KNOW many people will not understand. God is as much an observation for me as the science dictums I stated above (and if they ain't dictums, then I mean whatever they are).
