Good post. Sadly, it will go over some people's heads.

In the same vein, here's a quote by famous British Rabbi Dr. J. H. Hertz (1872-1946):

God the Creator and Lord of the Universe, which is the work of his goodness and wisdom; and Man, made in His image, who is to hallow his week-day labors by the blessedness of Sabbath-rest -- such are the teachings of the Creation chapter. It's purpose is to reveal these teachings to the children of man -- and not to serve as a text book of astronomy, geology, or anthropology. Its object is not to teach scientific facts; but to proclaim highest religious truths respecting God, Man, and the Universe. The "conflict" between the fundamental realities of Religion and the established facts of Science, is seen to be unreal as the soon as Religion and Science each recognizes the true border of its domain.

Thanks. Clearly, it did.

Don't you know that if you can't quote scripture you can't be a good Christian (or Jew I guess)?
