You're asking people to believe in a god who would knowingly plant false clues such as this? Why would he do that -- does he want a big laugh? And if that's the case, how many other false clues are there? Can I be sure that today is Thursday and that I wasn't born yesterday? He must be rolling in the aisles up there.

Do you remember the Clergy Letter we talked about? These were leaders of Christian congregations who were saying that they believe God actually gave them a brain to use, and that he meant them to ask questions and work things out. I think I like their version of God better. He's not out to fool people for unknown reasons; he gave them the ability to learn about their world.
