I'd better brush up on the old Catechism in case we go theocratic. Knowing that the earth is "really" only 6000 years old might come in handy at a police road block in the future. Like a secret handshake, you know, "hey, I'm one of you", wink-wink. One example below the fold.
Yesterday on C-SPAN I watched a press conference held by the National Clergy Council. A guy named John Vandenberge spoke, and these are his exact words:
"When Winston Churchill and President Roosevelt were on the deck of the Prince of Wales, a huge British battleship, in the ocean in August of '41, there were all the crews of this battleship on the decks, and they all sang 'Onward Christian soldiers, marching as to war'. They knew this was a war between good and evil. That's what we have today. But different wars have different uniforms. The Nazis had uniforms, you could recognize them. The terrorists today, you can't recognize them, they're very sneaky. Now we have very sophisticated opponents, in black robes."
I think the "ID" in RealID stands for Intelligent Design. Real Intelligent Design. Does that resonate for anyone? Freaked me out when I thought of it.
