I've always been fascinated by the battles (and truces) between secularism and religion, lately and more specifically about creationism vs. evolution. Thus my utter devotion to Joseph Campbell, Leo Tolstoy and a host of other great thinkers on the subject.

As some of you may know, there is a school district in Georgia that now puts a sticker on their biology books that states "Evolution is Just a Theory and not a fact; regarding the origin of living things and should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully and critically considered."

How about this?

I say we put the same sticker with a few words changed on every bible, and perhaps we will come closer to (what is in my opinion) the ideal of people considering science and reason and emotion and the divine equal parts of human nature that should be "approached with and open mind, studied carefully and critically considered." That we are in out nature both in equal parts. History and prehistory has proven this out. That man is at once industrious and scientific and also emotionally considerate of his own place in the universe (the mother and father of all philosophy and theology).

Especially here in America where 60% of those polled believe everything in the bible is literal truth this may be a good idea.

"Creationism is just a theory and not a fact. Regarding the origin of living things and should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully and critically considered."
