37. I still don't see how that makes it compatible.
Just because science has figured out how the big bang, or however it started, occured doesn't mean a "God" did it. That's just answering a mystery with another mystery. God of the gaps. We don't understand how something happened so we throw God in as the answer? We may not know how it all began, but we're making very slow progress to find out. Even today we can see in quantum physics that atoms will appear and disappear out of nowhere. Maybe this is the beginning of finding the answer to how it all began and once again taking "God" out of the gap. You say that "Believing in a supreme being is not incompatible with believing in science." However, isn't this having your cake and eating it too?

Although, I would much rather deal with someone like yourself than these crazy right wing, fundies.
