This is where the Bible and Science are at odds. Nothing in the Bible stands up to even a little testing, all it requires is s your vivid imagination for it to become fact.
Has as been pointed out,they do agree on the creation,only arguing how it happened.
But the science explanation survives the rigorous testing. If it fails a test then the theory is wrong and the science community accepts that and either adjusts their present theory or finds another one that does stand up to scrutiny.
The Fairy Stories in the Bible are looked upon by the likes of the Rev. Norcon as true no matter what, even if it defies testing, these people still argue that it's true 'cos the Bible said so.
That approach is a very dangerous one considering when these stories where made up. They even justify the violence and sexual depravity preached in this book. Thats where it becomes dangerous and leads directly to the Extremism that we see today.
Science can also be dangerous, but Science is just discovering the laws of nature and it is Nature that is very very dangerous. The danger of Fusion is very clear, but without it we would not exist. We could exist quite happily without Biblical Fairy Stories, and in my view we would exist in a far less dangerous world without the belief in Fairies at the bottom of the Biblical Garden.
Oh - Joe, stop being so aggressive and nasty, state your point, argue it, but don't descend into childishly insulting your fellow posters
