"thankyou shimrod for answering my question,....and even more for conceding that your science education and interests has no bearing on evolutionist beliefs. to my mind, that means that you do in fact take what you are told about it on faith."

That weasely response, which was entirely predictable, suggests to me, pete, that you're a dishonest little creep. Now how about keeping your side of the bargain and answering my question, which is (for the umpteenth time):

"Why should I believe the account of 'creation' that is written in the Bible rather than the reality revealed by modern science?"
