Your contempt for science and scientists does credit to neither God nor Jesus Christ. I think your denial springs out of prideful conceit, not humility and faith.

Not accepting the interpretation of the fossil record that scientists use to support the ToE does not equate to *contempt for science*. The theory of evolution is not all science.

I am humble enough ....

Not if you have to tell people how humble you are.

So you reject interpretation out of the fossil record out of something other than pride?

If you say you reject it out of faith, then if would follow that you reject true science altogether and would revert to Dark Ages when Christians were required to believe that the Earth revolved around the sun.

... you have to tell people how humble you are.

It flatters your vanity to interpret my words that way; the reality is that I am telling people like you that humility is advised in the Bible for a reason, and it behooves all of us to remember that. It takes real humility to accept the likelihood that God formed us by way of the lowly ape.
