You want a quick resolution of this issue? Sorry, you're looking at the
wrong people.
"Like a mighty tortoise
Moves the church of God.
Brothers we are treading,
Where we've often trod."
As I said recently elsewhere:
"Surely the real difference is that science has a greater propensity to
adapt than religion?..
They both *do* change, but the rate of change in science is just
considerably faster..
In religious terms, it's not all that long ago that science believed
the Earth was the centre of the universe and everything revolved around
it..
In geological terms, it's not all that long ago that religion believed
the Earth, Sun and Moon were actually gods.."
