I'm not going to label christianity as a whole, but it seems as though many christians on here are opposed to science and a rational enganging of many of the issues that we face as a nation and a global community. I do feel as though some christians do keep their head in the sand and fear science and rationality, are blind to many things, and choose ignorance. This in turn only makes us look silly and intellectually inept. I urge all who are christians to actively engage and expand their boundries into the areas of science, philosophy and the like. One word, simplistic answers from the bible are not going to cut it in an argument with atheists and agnostics. The bible, beautiful and necessary as it is, was written to provide us with what we needed to obtain salvation, not as a dictionary for every answer out there. Let us be informed, "testing all things" and actively engaging our culture with wisdom, intellect and grace! "Be not afraid"
I know end my rant...
