Well, you see, it’s all in learning how to see.

You see, the Bible is all quite true and explains everything nicely. Yet, it is also full of allegory and innuendo and intention that can take on so many different meanings and interpretations depending on the reader and the times.

Truth, as is shown by the over arching example of the Bible, is also quite true and explains things nicely. But it has none of the darkly mysterious allegory, the juicy innuendos and the forgone intentions that make Scriptures so immediate, so lucid, so applicable to our times. Unvarnished Truth, by itself, offers nothing that can quicken the hearts of the faithful, nothing that can be called numinous or unworldly and lacking such, could not ever be relied upon to attract and hold the attention of the masses, bless their votes and their wallets and their pointy little heads.

Wait- aren’t they supposed to be nice to the lying god naggers and let them say whatever they want because [science] history is compatible with their nonsense? If they would just shut up the god-naggers will be instantly converted into godless fact-checking historians, but since they dare speak up the god-naggers will shun history.

Here is A Great Mysteryâ?¢, which conclusively proves that Science Doesn't Know Everythingâ??: Why is it that a search for "Voyage that Shook the World" comes up empty on The Intersection and Framing Science, the two blogs most focused on how scientists should constructively confront creationism? How can amateur and untrained communicators possibly respond to a new challenge without guidance from the Experts?!?

Christians lying for Jesus? I’m shocked. In other news, 2+2=4.
