Dear Religion, While you were debating what chicken sandwiches were okay to eat,...

66. There is absolutely no reason to inject a sentient intelligence into the scenario.

Science may hit a wall at the Big Bang, but that doesn't make it the domain of religion.

Judeo-Christian religion says the world is 6,000 years old. Science thoroughly disproves that assertion, walking us back billions of years, describing geological and biological processes, entire ecosystems, astronomical events, etc., in great detail-- systems the Bible is completely ignorant of, back and back and back to the Big Bang.

Science reaches this point, literally billions of times more distant than the beginning described in the Bible, and says, "past here we don't know". At this point, religion, which has been sulking in the corner and grumbling this whole time, suddenly throws up it's hand and shouts, "AH-HA! YOU don't know! But *I* DO!".

It's absurd.
