I'm a transplant to the Hoosier state, from the equally evangelistic land of Lincoln.

Some place with more interesting geological features. e.g. ocean, beach, mountains, forest.

I always thought Northern California or Oregon would be cool..

Interesting take on who/what God is, from a priest in the church of England.

When I first saw the story about the Pope saying evolution & the big bang are real and that God is not a magician with a wand I thought it was from a satire site.

When that pope got Pope-arized i thought I remember some of the South American contingent indicating that he was not as great as he seemed. I'd be really curious to read some of the articles on that

Atheism bothers me (along with the fundamental religious, to me they're both the same). Really, we're all agnostics because we are debating a question (Is there a God?) for which there is not and cannot be empirical evidence. I don't KNOW God exists, i believe that he does. Knowledge isn't the same thing as belief. I wouldn't say that i believe in my brother, i know the guy. You only believe in something when you don't know for sure. To me, and correct me if I'm wrong, Atheism doesn't portray that level of questioning. A true scientist is completely open to the fact there might be a God, he or she is just waiting for the empirical evidence to prove it, evidence that will never appear to us.

I think it's more likely that they're stunned by how dumb that post was.

Agreed. Typical RM asshole response. We've all been guilty, though.
