There is of course a meta-issue demonstrated here
and in the reams of other incoherent creationist
postings that so often enter as fodder into Chez
Watt postings.

They lock down solidly and with overwhelming
evidence, the conventional wisdom, supported by
extensive polling results, that the least educated,
least intelligent, and most ignorant parts of the
population are the ones most likely to be found to
be creationists.

Are the members of the population meeting those
descriptions those from whom one should accept
advice on _anything_, particularly anything of
modest importance, much less on ways to assure a
joyful life after death if that is an important part
of ones world view?

I wouldn't trust them for instructions on how to
change the oil on a moter scooter; or even on how to
pour water out of a boot with the instructions
written on the bottom of the boot heel.

"Don't take advice from stupid people" is an
excellent life strategy. It will keep one away from
street drugs, cigarettes, alcoholism, jail terms,
bad companions, stump preachers, and a raft of other
unpleasantries.
