Ah, I am using FF, I'll give it a try.
Yep, worked as advertised, great strip! I wonder if creationists actually think that far ahead?

I don't mind anyone belive in their god. What I object about is that they saying they use science to prove the existance of god and other things, but at the same time deny scientific proofs about evolution, BigBang and other things.

As I said before - you cannot ever mix religion and science.
You cannot ever use science to prove religious things, and you cannot ever use religuion to explain phenomena of physics.
Arguments like "God created it that way" is utterly anti-science.

One question I can think of: Has spirituality been a positive influence on mankind, god or no god? How many spiritualities are there? Sorry, that was two questions. And a more fundamental one: what is spirituality?

science and religion went dancing one night...
tha drink did flow and they began to fight...
science smacked religion, "i have facts on my side!"...
religion replied, "only God can decide!"...
round an round, and up and down...
tha dancing continued az tha Spirits did frown...
at last they did tire, of tha relentless discourse...
science wuz yawning and religion wuz hoarse...
they called fer a truce, twas quite late that night...
then they hopped in tha sack an made it alright...

I agree. Science looks at facts and deduces what it can from them, whilst religion, specifically Christianity, is based on faith, and indeed cannot be 'proven' from a scientific point of view. God doesn't want you to believe through proof, but rather through faith. Thus, while science belongs everywhere religion does not (for instance, it does not belong in science as a method of proof). I remember being told once that "God is the why, science the how..."
