"in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth"

That's not evidence! It's a myth recounted in an old book. At the moment all of the evidence that we have points to something like 'something from nothing'. But all of the evidence probably isn't in yet. Will it ever all be in? Who knows? You see, pete, there is probably no such thing as certainty ... although it's very close to certain that all knowledge is NOT contained within the pages of an old book! Just because you and your creationist and fundamentalist mates don't like some of the conclusions reached by modern science is utterly irrelevant. In the real world, real scientists, often disagree with each other - that's how science works and how it evolves (that word again!). But standing on the side-lines booing and jeering and grabbing little bits of the various, on-going debates and twisting them to bolster up your rigid, pre-conceived ideas is just - well - silly!
