I think you know what I think of that Steph - but I did read it all. A very difficult subject but I think I agree that science cannot prove or disprove faith - they are two different things.
love you lots

Evolutionary and/or anthropological science is not compatible with 'a creator'(literal or metaphorical), although some might disagree.
One of us is very wrong. If it is you then you have lost nothing, if it is me then I have made the gravest error I could possibly make.
But you know me. I am perfect and dont make mistakes... unless it involves calculating the calories in chocolate. :)
One last thing. Scientists may indeed have something solid (or at least something which will require further attention)to identify individual faith, or lack of. Drumroll please ... the VMAT2 or 'God' gene!!
Peace out.
