There is a real holy book, and strangely it is written with only the letters T A G C , but it tells a story going back three and a half billion years at least.
And now we are beginning to read it, it tells us many things we could never have known before. Such as the fact, that at some time about forty thousand years, a man and a female Neanderthal met for sex in the forests of central Europe. Or that about seventy thousand years ago, we nearly died out, probably because the volcano Tambora caused a global catastrophe, so that only a tiny remnant population struggled through in central Africa, with just one surviving female linage. ( Please remind the Bible belt racists, that we are all the children of a black woman, they will love that little factoid. )
Now that is cool too.
So much to learn, so little time.
Evolution is far more profound and transcendental that anything in the Bible. It replaces religious lies with what we are, how we got here, what will happen to us and our relationship to all living things (on this planet).
eMaybe we need to come out with a Coles Notes version. There is no god, the Earth being only 6,000 years old is based upon a Bronze Age explanation that makes no sense, why not sleep in this Sunday and enjoy your life for a change?
