So, you're another one of those that has blind faith in science. Notice what you said: "scientific evidence." Why the hell does it have to be "scientific"? What the hell is science that it is entitled to unquestioned obedience????

Of course, you people believe that the universe just sort of magically by random chance came into existence all by itself - yeah, like I'm going to take you seriously!

Notice something Techno said, "Moreover, some of the articles above, after reading them, are filled with weasel words like "maybe" and "may," without actually saying anything." So, it's okay for science to use "weasel words" like "maybe," "possibly," and others but no one else can?

You stupidly said, "The problem is that there are a lot of idiotic people out there, I'm thinking especially parents." I hope that you have kids some day and they take that attitude toward every damned word you say to them!

Lumara presented what can be considered anecdotal evidence. At the very least, this warrants further study.

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.

"Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes toward the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.

"I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up."

The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.

"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."
