And secondly, religious people don't believe what they believe based on facts or logic and therefore you cannot sway their opinion with facts or logic. And lastly, I understand what I do about science because I have spent a lifetime interested in it and learning about it. If you haven't put in a similar amount of time educating yourself on the subject then no one an bring you up to speed in a few typed paragraphs on a message board. If you are genuinely interested I can recommend some good books and or documentaries on the subject.
Very well said, and spot on.
