Maybe it’s not! Good greif I apologize. Clearly I did a terrible job here (looking back now) at stating a figure without a source. I know in general I’m careful not to do that, so I’m confident I must have read that somewhere recently (to this post), but failed to put it in the final draft.

I honestly can’t think of where I would have even read it, but perhaps you know. At least of something similar (I assume, given your certainty in stating it’s falsehood). Could you point me to your source so I can make the appropriate correction above?

Hi Ryan,

You write:
“More than half of scientists, chemists, and astronomers believe in a divine being, not because there is undeniable proof that He exists, but that the world is so spectacular that it is more reasonable that there was a Master Planner than a random evolution.”

That statement is not true.

System seems to be working for everyone else, morcautiouseye. Perhaps user error is to blame?

Love to see you back anytime, Rusty! I know you’ve been out with some serious family issues, and we are glad they are working out. That comes first, blog is down the list a ways.

Good luck!

Tried three times to post. System kept telling me “Bad Request”. Now I feel redundant.

Silly system kept sending me to a page that said “Bad Request”. Thought it wasn’t working. Didn’t realize it was putting my comment up there each time. Technology has made me seem redundant. Cute.

Looks like I missed the best part of it. All was a year ago. I’ll check back.

I became curious to see if anyone talks about these things. Good topics… Is the church true and does god exist. I was interested here until I realized all I read was from a year ago. Oh well.

Yes. I think Rusty will be back soon.
