It has been interesting to observe the BBC reporting recently on the issue of evolution versus creationism in the UK.

I can totally understand how the idea that a carpenter from Nazareth could actually be the God who made this world looks utterly ridiculous. The question is not does it seem intellectually ridiculous, but is it true? In which case it really doesn’t matter if it seems ridiculous or not.
