thought of the day.106

The findings of countless dedicated scientists in the diverse fields of geology, paleontology, biogeography, zoology, botany, comparative anatomy, molecular biology, genetics and embryology all point to the fact of evolution. But the fundamentalist Christian preachers know science better than the scientists and have done their part to encourage half the population of the United States to reject mountains of evidence in favor of belief that man was fashioned from dirt and woman from a rib bone. This denigrating of facts in favor of faith is but one example of the danger of religious leaders.
