    I'm amazed The World's Largest Prairie Dog[^] didn't make the list. It's a marvel beyond anything else I have seen. :rolleyes:

      Oddly enough, they have found the body of pharaoh and the bodies of other important people of past. But they have yet to uncover the body of Christ.

          :laugh: Nice! At least that thing resembles the real thing. I actually stopped by to see the Prairie Dog (driving across Kansas is incredibly boring) and was a little let down by what amounted to little more than a pile of brown concrete with eyes. Good for a laugh, though. :)

                    Oddly enough, some say they can not have faith to believe in Christ and what the Bible says about him, but they can have faith in carbon 14 dating. With carbon 14 dating if all holds true*, it has a half-life of 5730 years. So its accuracy is limited and can only be used on materials less than 70,000 years old. *This is the part that has to be taken on faith. Assumes that the rate of carbon 14 production has been constant through the past 70,000 years.

                              Because I have seen several of them, and they all have scientific "theories" on there that have been completely proven wrong. For instance the one about the magnetic field, or about the sun's size. I think that any supposively scientific information that came from religious websites would be highly suspect at best.

                                        How does the story of creation go in the koran?

                                          I think it is the same as Genesis. But there is also the QU'RET AL-YEZID that says Satan is the creator of humanity. I think the bottom line is that simple minds look for simple explanations. Believing in God makes eveything easy to understand, and provides a way of coping with death.
