You do realize those are "theories" and there is a ton of faith put into both.

The bible is an IMPORTANT historical book just as the Koran and other texts. Its funny you should mention atheism because thats exactly what they teach in schools. So your kids are already being "back doored" with your blessings.

Again with the attack against christians, you are a biggot I can see why you are so full of idiotic viewpoints. Tolerance is something religions teach, obviously you have never learned it.
