Mr. Toll

The very best years of my education were the last two years of high school-- the years in public education. In particular, an astronomy teacher named Mr. Toll made a significant difference for the better, on my life and on who I am as a person

You should mail him a copy of this, if you haven't already told him these things.

I have to say one more open minded person in the ranks of the scientific community is not a bad thing. I find the narrow minded views of most religeons bad for both them, as well as the world in general. Keep looking for the truth, if there is a God, I am pretty sure he wouldnt have a problem with that.

Hats off to Mr Toll!

Congratulations!

I have to admit that my break with Christian orthodoxy came in the fifth grade, when no one could adequately answer my questions about Genesis, specifically what they meant by "There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown." Genesis 6:4

So there was this other, great race, and they mated with humans, and they created the even more ancient mighty race? And humans came after? Or what?

And this was before we'd even gotten to Noah, for heaven's sake. :-)
