Maybe its Easter but, I mean how can you repect someone who prefers a mythological fantasy over a science based theory of evolution.

Snicker, now I like my Easter Eggs like anyone else and I realise it is an "odd" minority that hold religious teachings as tangible realities but, hello People, its all made up..... just like all the other equally incredulous religious mythological fantasies around. Why is yours so superior in the realitiy stakes?
Hehe, Whats changed in 300 odd years in those parts when their forebears used to have a thang for witches.
What is more fascinating with the US experience is the way they are so enarmoured with that piece of paper that supposedly secularises public control over society.
Allowing nutcases at a local level to circumvent this tenet of the Constitution, is surely a weakness in the system although it has made many a lawyer rich in recent years haggling over the interpretations of the words.
I have no problem with anyone having their own private fantasy of life but it shouldnt be forced down the gullets of everyone around them because they can manipulate power and control over others.
