Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell me, if you know so much.
--God clownin' Job (NLT, Job 38:4); Job, having gone through earthly Hell, still had enough sense to STFU.
Is there anything more mind-numbingly boring than a discussion centering on creationism versus evolution versus intelligent design?
I submit this: don’t know, don’t care.
Why aren’t any of the various proponents of these theories—especially those that believe in a Divine Creator--content with not knowing everything?
Believers: if you knew everything, you’d be God.
Atheists, you definitely aren’t God. Since you don’t believe in an omnipotent being, it should follow that man isn’t one.
This is not to say that the questions shouldn’t be asked. It is to say that those who find the discussion so fascinating shouldn’t be so arrogant about an answer they don’t actually have. I-Don’t-Know isn’t an obscenity.
