I coincidentally lived with a young-earth-creationist during the summer when Kansas debated removing evolution from public schools. We debated evolution often, each absolutely convinced of our positions. It was an interesting summer.
He took me to a seminar at a church called "the truth about dinosaurs." Dinos walked with humans. Dinos are in the bible as a dragon. God is testing us with fossils. Crazy shit.
There were little kids there. That made me really angry. I wanted to argue with the presenter and wrote a bunch of notes and questions to go at him. When we spoke, after, he was super nice. We ended up talking about Macs (~1999 / 2000; Apple was close to failing for so many years prior, this was a soft-spot to win my favor and he was a Mac guy). I opted not to challenge him because there would be no point.
I wonder how many of the children in that audience are now MAGA shithead evangelists. I hate people like this. I don't hate my former roommate. He was sold lies since he was a child and, for all his intelligence, simply could not escape them. It was astounding.
