This thread has given me a good laugh. Gosh everyone knows the earth is flat if it was not flat the angles could not have gone to the 4 corners of the earth.

You do know that some scientists have just refuted that the speed of light is not constant and is not the fastest possible?

Methinks hes from another team... (Arstechnica, HardOCP...)

Ok, I want to clarify something I said...

When I said Creationist, I probably should have said "literal" Creationist. By that, I mean someone who takes the Bible's story of Creation as nearly word for word literal. I, personally, have no doubt that God (or Allah, or ...) created the universe. In that respect, I am a Creationist. But it looks like to me Genesis very closely resembles a Big Bang as long as you disregard the 7 days thing (which is easy to do, since the Genesis story doesn't have a setting sun until, I believe, the third day, so there is no way to measure days at the beginning).

God said, "Let there be light. And there ways." Sure sounds like a Big Bang to me.

Anyway, the purpose of this ramble was to say I am not condemning Creationism or belief in a Creator. I am condemning a blind belief in the facts of a story that was meant to teach a lesson in spirituality and morality and not a lesson in scientific fact.

Bleep

At the round Earth's imagin'd corners
Blow your trumpets angels and arise
Arise from death
Ye numberless infinities of souls.
