Which God would you have more respect for:

A God who waves his hand and creates everything on a whim in six days, or
a God who is subtle and intelligent enough to construct a system that
would constantly improve itself. Forever.

Personally I wouldn't waste a Sunday afternoon on a hack like the God you
want to worship.

(BTW the Hebrew word for "day" in Genesis means, "a period of time".
Could be 24 hours, could be 24 billion years. Think about it from that
perspective.)
