Huff Post: by Steve McSwain —
Jesus did not come to create some new religion. Bishop Desmond Tutu is right when he says, “God is not a Christian.” Jesus no more set out to begin “Christianity” than Buddha set out to establish “Buddhism.” These religions, or philosophies, were creations of the followers who came after these spiritual masters.
The story of Genesis, as well as the story of Jesus, is the story of the creation of humanity and community and a new humanity and community, respectively. When you get this, my friend, every Adam and Eve you meet, which is to say, every person you meet, will be a member of your extended human family… your human community.
We could not be luckier here in Kentucky. We are that state that promotes religious quackery. Oh, in case you don’t know or are thinking of traveling south to warmer climates, on your way through Kentucky stop and see the Creation Museum. It is our pyramid to primitive faith.
Soon the museum will serve as host to what some are saying is the debate of the century — Creationism versus Evolutionism. Not since the days of the Scopes Monkey Trial has there been another more important debate.
Are you kidding me?
I am so weary of this nonsense. This madness just won’t go away, will it?
