Just a dose of 200 level college biology, physics, and chemistry is mind altering..... And I don't believe it forcludes Creation or the Almighty unless one chooses to see it that way..
I agree...I think they deny themselves by choice, but it doesn't have to be this way.

The problem with religious dogma is when it is faced with incontrovertible evidence to the contrary. The dogmatic holds to their dogma regardless...That's tragic. Oh, and dogmatic thought isn't exclusive to religion by a LONG shot. But when I was a Christian, I actively denied myself any deep study of evolution. It was when I saw massive hypocrisy in the church that I started educating myself beyond what religious dogma allows...and my mind was blown. Evolution is straight up bad ass...Such a cool field of study.
