Conflicts

I find it absolutely hilarious that only LAST YEAR did the Church of England apologize to Darwin for it's unbelievable "anti-evolutionary fervor." I also find it amazing that to this day, the battle between creationism and evolutionism still rages. After thousands of years, and hundreds of years of modern science, some people STILL haven't accepted the facts right in front of them. How does it make sense to believe in an almighty being that "placed" us here on Earth, instead of believing that, like all things, we evolved from something less complex. It baffles me, but then again, I wasn't brought up to be religious. I was brought up to be open-minded and sensible.

It's also interesting how "fossils were believed to be impossible." I believe this ties in with the disbelief in evolution, as fossils are the hard evidence of our evolution from something less complex than ourselves. Even the Catholic church itself admits that "we should not expect to find in Scripture full scientific accuracy or complete historical precision." What I'd like to know then, is why so many people are still Catholic, with an admittance of that magnitude.
