I dunno why I keep updating but I just keep thinking of these things. So that same night when the crack guy came in, my head cashier and another cashier asked me if I believe in evolution. I said yes. They asked why. I said because I believe it is true. They said why. I asked what they were looking for here. They said they don't believe in it and want to know why other's do. They said they believed God created us all. They could not fathom why people could think we came from monkeys. I told them I had listened to informed and educated people discuss and it is proven that it is true. The cashier remarked that I just heard about it and thought it made sense. They said God created us all in seven days. I said what about dinosaur fossils. They said He created them too but he created them before us. That God's "time" is much longer than ours. That one day in our time is like millions of years in His. Now I am sorry but I just had to laugh at this. This conception that God lives in this "alternate universe" which magically slows time down. The thing that just pissed me off as they wrote off my belief as just a simple "liked what I heard" thing. So I guess in order for my belief to be valid I need to forcefed prophecies? Just accept that other's have different beliefs and move on.
