    "There is no harm in believing in a higher power or having a spiritual existence, these things are important. But to put faith into the biblical version of creation is to perpetuate stupidity. There is a dignity in the aboriginal belief systems, such as dreamtime, as they are based on a society with no science to refute it and no aims for material gain. However, there is no dignity in a movement such as christianity that denies science, merely to protect its own vested interests. "

    Well put Nuc

    apart from the biblical version perpetuates stupidity bit.

    You can't explain where we came from or how existence began so better not to simply dismiss what today seems impossible because your belief system won't allow it.

    Go back 100 years and see what we have today that was also thought scientifically impossible.
