To all the intelligent-design bashers out there, ... try this on: Science and Religion ARE NOT mutually exclusive! Isn't it possible that it was written down as people understood the story ... within the context they wrote it, ... and as it made sense to them in their time? Our deepening (scientific) understandings of the universe and humanity do nothing but lead us to the same conclusion: The story is much, much bigger than our science alone can handle.
So please dismount your high-horse, tie it to the post (next to mine), and let's all drink from the same watering hole, ... acknowledging God and Science simultaneously.
