Wow papa, what a well-rounded life you must living. Do yourself a favor and go to a book store soon. There's a whole new life out there.

Leave Papa alone! You don't know what kind of life he lives, have you ever asked or noted same? As far as his selection of the Bible goes, to each his own I've always said. You should adopt that philosophy.

all richard dawkins books are a must read, this is essential reading

nomdeplume

Agreed bowlesy, I am currently reading 'The Ancestor's Tale. In fact I posted simply to stir up a bit of debate, this site has become a bit stale methinks.

commented 12 years ago

bowlesy

the problem is that religious type`s dont read this type of book because it will make them think about the alternatives and that makes them uneasy and so its easier to take shelter in ignorance .

commented 12 years ago

nomdeplume

Yes, and that's the reason almost 50% of Americans believe the universe and its inhabitants was created in 6 days 6,000 years ago, because it is easier than thinking about evolution.

commented 12 years ago

Bob/PKB

bowlesy, why on earth would you think "religious types" don't read books about anything outside of their chosen faith? How do you think someone reaches a faith conclusion? "Because I said so"?
A person of faith isn't ignorant of alternatives; faith is a choice.
nomdeplume, evolution is much easier to believe than 6 days. It comes with no commitment.

commented 12 years ago

nomdeplume

Bob/PKB, so why do 50% of Americans believe in the 6 day, 6,000 year theory?

commented 12 years ago

Bob/PKB

It's not for me to say what or why anyone believes what he believes. I can only speak for myself and, oftentimes, not very well. Personally, I'm saddened it's so few, but that's just me.
