I can understand that! The Begats are about as dull as it gets, and really, aside from Bishop Ussher and those who subscribe to his timeline, who cares? The second time through, I skipped the whole, tedious thing.

Is this a legitimate argument, or are you being sarcastic? (Dave, what's that law you cited earlier? We should somehow have a permanent link to it somewhere...)

Poe's Law. And I got to say, OFFC, you need to be a bit more explicit when you post things like these. If it is a joke, throw in a smiley face. Given your other posts in different threads I would bet that you're joking, but I can't be sure about that.

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

I must have, also, because I missed two generations in there. Abraham to Jesus is 42, not 40.
