First Commandment (No other Gods) vs First Amendment (Freedom of Religion)
Garden of Eden vs Science and Reality
Noah's Flood vs Dinosaur Extinction 65 million years ago
Tower of Babel vs International Space Station
The Raising of Lazarus vs CPR and Defibrillators
Faith Healed Lepers vs Antibiotics virtually eliminating Leprosy
I could go on, but I think everyone gets the point.
Which world do you choose to live in, a Middle Eastern Fantasy World or here in Modern Reality. And try to remember that you are using a COMPUTER to answer the question, not sending an angel with a telepathic message.
And yes, they actually are mutually exclusive.

okay, the first ammendment is actually that CONGRESS can't impose a religion
and how can you prove the Garden of Eden didn't exist?
They have found fish fossils in the mountains proving that the sea was once that high (the flood covering the whole world)
and the test they use to determine that things are millions of years old have been proven to be innacurate, they've tested them on things they could prove were only 50 yrs old and those test came back saying that they were thousands of years old.
And CPR and Defibrillators can't compare to raising someone from the dead, they work on someone whose heart has only stopped for a short time and Lazarus and been dead for several days.
and back then they didn't have antibiotics so it was a miracle and it still would be a miracle today if someone contracted leprosy and were healed without any treatment.
I could go on but I think you get the point.

Sorry, I don't get the point.
What does the fact of dinosaur extinction have to do with a flood millions of years later??
What does the miraculous raising of people from the dead by Jesus Christ 2,000 years ago have to do with modern methods of preventing some deaths??
What does the healing of lepers with a touch or a word 2,000 years ago have to do with modern antibiotics??
What does a foolish primitive attempt to reach heaven by physical means have to do with modern space exploration??
No-one truly lives in reality, modern or otherwise, unless his personal reality includes the ultimate reality Who is the source of all other reality.

This world is not true reality, it is just a place for now we are passing through. Soon it will be turned back to God's perfect order and we wil live here Heaven on Earth as was God's plan from the beginning with Eden. You really don't want to miss it.<><

I live in modern times, but i still hold the Bible to be true. I believe it from cover to cover. And nothing that people say will change that. Believe it or not the Bible still applies to todays world. And for that matter about the computer, there are things in the Bible that we are just now finding in modern society.
For example God mentions springs in the sea. And we found that in modern society like in the 1950's. I don't doubt the Bible one bit.

Personally, I'm really enjoying living in my modern fantasy world (complete with all the latest scientific facts however).

Modern Reality.
First Amendment.
Science and Reality.
Mass extinctions.
ISS.
CPR.
Antibiotic, and their resistant bacteria.
The bluntness of the question is fitting, but people will delve into the minutiae as well. For instance, why do you say that they are mutually exclusive?

I was fortunate to get a proper education in science, math and logic so of course I live in modern reality.

I live in my perception of modern reality.
Sorry had to make that little Hindu modification; I've been told I sound like an atheist.
I took it as a complement =) but really, we only experience our nervous system.
