Funny. I've seen video of sheep tucking their legs in and rolling over cattle grids.

But I've never seen divine intervention.

I've aware that when milk bottles started coming in foil tops, Blue tits in different parts of the country learned to break the seal within a day or two.

But I've never seen prayer work as a concept.

I've seen how wolves have become many strains of domestic dog.

But never seen proof that Jesus was any more than a person who Pissed off the clerics who were doing well for themselves under the occupation.

If he existed at all.

I've seen the calculations for and thanks to my education can understand red shift which contradicts the superstitious version of the age of the universe.

But I've nothing but the translations of translations of people in no position to know the age of the earth with regard to this 7 day malarkey. If he created the universe, why the reference in days to one planet out of billions and billions?

I don't study evolution. But if the alternative is the Bible, then either Darwin and co are on the button or nobody is yet. The mythical "God did it" used to work for ignorant peasants but today's peasants aren't quite as ignorant. Or susceptible.
