A Wing and Prayer

Pilots for Christ

I became aware of this group via a sticker I saw on a car today while at lunch. So I checked out the site and all I'm saying is Bible believing, Christ loving Christians dismiss evolution and so why couldn't they just as easily dismiss the science of gravity*, and I find that's not acceptable from people flying planes.


Gravity and how the universe actually works goes against the Bible as well if you believe me then you need to read about Galileo
Not that it is a good thing that the space flight is common, because if Galileo hadn't stood up to the Pope and geocetrism prevailed there would be a lot of confused space pilots, when they returned to the "center of the universe" and Earth wasn't there.

While reading about this also note that a lot of it sounds familiar to the arguments of creationists (or "intelligent design" it's all the same) you can mad-lib the following (from the wikipedia)
"Pope Urban VIII personally asked Galileo to give arguments for and against heliocentrism in the book, and to be careful not to advocate heliocentrism."
vs today
"President* Bush personally asked the scientific to give arguments for and against the theory of evolution in the book, and to be careful not to advocate the theory of evolution."

It took a couple hundred years for the Catholic Church to admit their mistake, hopefully this time they can move a bit faster to come inline with reality when it comes to evolution.
