Has anyone else noticed that most of the world is run based on a non-theistic worldview? We develop and refine treatments for diseases based on the knowledge that they are mutating, evolving organisms. We study geology and search for oil using principles predicated on the earth being billions of years old, not thousands. We study with great interest the artifacts and writings of cultures that were thriving thousands of years ago, at a time when they were supposedly being completely wiped out during a worldwide Deluge. Though we hear time and again how the vast majority of human species holds some form or other of religious belief, the engine that powers the world and moves it forward runs on science, skepticism, and a complete disregard for the self-proclaimed "truths" of scripture.
