1. Christians have the most nukes.
2. Christians see it as their mission to convert everyone else.

Some religions spread through gentle teaching. Some spread through converting or killing off those that can't be converted.

Bill is right. The universe is about 13 billion old and to have 2 things develop at the same speed over the course of 13 billion years is highly unlikely. Where would we be today if we developed at the time that Dinosaurs developed?

The Big Bang theory is based on an idea that an explosion happened in the center of the universe and exploded outward, and according to all the brains, the universe is still expanding, so going by that, the outside edges is older then the inside closer to the center, so if that is the case, lets assume we are in the middle of it all and anything closer to the center then us is less developed, and anything farther from the center is more developed.

OW.... that hurt my brain.....
