    I knew a guy when we were both in final year of a biomed bachelor. He was a creationist

    Don’t know how he went that long without finding something that challenges that viewpoint

      I’m sure he found a shitload of stuff that challenged that viewpoint.

      …and then proceeded to completely ignore it

      Like what kind? Believing in higher powers doesn’t have to mean that you don’t belive in evolution/natural adaptation taking place over time.

      If it was “God made everything in a few earth days and nothing changed” then yeah I feel you

        Creationists believe the first. For example I’m Christian, but not a moron, so I don’t believe in creationism.

      Two sets of facts for different purposes. Just like how we know that the stars are only a few miles away, but for the purpose of science they are millions of miles away. (/minitrue)
