 Funny how scientists and people who believe in evolution are thought of as believing in "silly" stuff! We are the ones who are "wrong" because we believe in stuff that's "made up" or not proven!

Here is a list of the Top 10 Creationist Myths according to LiveScience... there's some really far out stuff in there. The history of religion alone should be enough to make people reconsider, yet the institution is alive and thriving... I'll never get humans, or how we've lasted this long.

Yup, heard of most of those, and then some. However, can't really remember them off the top of my head. I vaguely remember one Hindu one about the gods and demons working together and churning the milk of the cosmos to form the world...(I think.) The Aboriginies have one about a serpent travelling the lands creating the mountains and rivers, and the Maoris have an Earth Mother and Sky Father, which their kids had to force them apart to create the world as we know it.

Yes, I've never been one of those religious people. I need to have at least some proof before I will believe something is viable. I will not take something purely on faith or because some priest says it's true.
