[QUOTE="AE 87, post: 209762, member: 195"] Well, I don't agree that the earth is only 6000 years old, but I don't think that such belief is sufficient for someone to be labeled an idiot, especially if the person asserts it as a position of faith. It seems to me that a person who believes that the earth is only 6000 years old because they trust an authority's interpretation of a book they consider sacred is no more idiotic than someone who believes that complex life evolved from simple life through an unguided process of natural selection working on random variation because they trust an authority's interpretation of a textbook. Calling someone an idiot simply because they hold a different faith position is bigotry. [/QUOTE]
