Here is a side note about Darwin.
http://www.papapetros.com.au/HistoryPainRelief.pd...
The second woman who was to become famous was Emma Darwin, the wife of Charles
Darwin the eminent 19th century Naturalist. Emma had chloroform given to her by her
husband for the last 2 of her 8 births. The first time she used chloroform was in 1847
which was before Queen Victoria (1853) and no doubt it left an indelible impression
upon her so much so that for her last birth she was screaming ‘Get me the chloroform”.

Most atheists have read the bible and were raised in their parents religion. We then read other books and started to think for our selves.
Have you read the quran or torah, they are about your same god? Which book of your god is the truth? How do you choose one over the other? Is it the one you were raised with? If so, that's not thinking for yourself, that just being a parrot.

You have alrighty come half way on the logic that Dawkins is stateing. With the evidence scientists now have on the size and age of the unverse, it proofs the earth is not 6000 years old. So the Bible is not the word of an all knowing god.
All evidence point to evolution. There is no evidence for god.
Your elephant story helps to show how religion thinks, a scientist would says he does not know and needs more evidence.
What is your evidence for god? ( no, you cannot use a book call the bible, it's just a man write book with no evidence to back it up.)

You make a good arguement for writed history. Science is not history, it is facts. There was no writen history of gravity before Newton but there still was gravity.

1) Science is NOT a religion. It is a proven way to gather true facts and to build testable theories on, like math does.
2) Science should be taught in science class, ALL religions should be taught in Religious classes equally.

You have one book from a 2000 year old iron age desert people. We have thousands of books from educated scientists using the latest techology, peer reviewed by other scientists. We win.

Stein's movie "expelled" has been completely debunked by many people. He lies and misquotes scientists like Dawkins. Google "expelled" there is lot of proof it lies, misquotes, and makes things up. To quote "expelled" in an arguement is absurd.
