I have spent some time in religious studies, but this thread was about science, not religion or belief. Science tells us nothing about God nor intent. It tells us if a given theory matches measurements. Nothing more. Nothing less. You are free to use or disregard this structure in you own personal religious views. Some people seem to see science as some kind of threat to religion. I don't. -- Daniel Packman NCAR/ACD pack@ucar.edu
