Diana,

Re: your comment at Superman's Cape.

Creationism is NOT just a few people asking reasonable questions. It's an agenda-driven movement to impose a religious belief.

It's dishonest, from A to Z. That's my problem with it.

There's zero chance of me persuading anyone of anything, especially in a blog comment section. But if you read up on it, you'll see what I mean.

I do understand your concerns, Commissar, and I am current with the opposing opinions.

What disturbs me is the "rhetoric" from both extremes. There is room for debate and more discovery.

I'm most curious about the journey.

Another thought, though ...

We're now living globally and many are finally starting to learn about the "religions" of cultures that 30 years ago never hit the front pages of the NYT, let alone the internet or CNN.

No one was even hinting about extremism hitting this continent.

Think what we're seeing is a backlash?
