Bill Nye On Creationism

Technically it requires you to have faith that the facts you're being presented have been verified by others and that the conclusions they've reached based off them are realistic if you don't have the resources to verify for yourself or the understanding necessary to analyze and/or refute the conclusions.

It requires faith in real people with evidence you can view at your leisure and verify if you have doubts. That's quite different than asking my all powerful invisible friend. But hey, I'm a science major and 90% of what my professors say I take on blind faith. Maybe in the Renaissance every scientist had time to verify what every single discovery. It's just not practical with the current amassed knowledge.

I have to agree with Nye's sentiment. Some of the opinions biases parents inflict on their children are rather cruel. All those wasted years in bible school...
