UK boffins uncover more secrets of the gamma ray burst

Why go to so much trouble 

Why go to all this bother, when you can just read the book of Genesis, or if that's too hard, just go to www.answersingenesis.org and memorise some of the talking points.

Remember: science is just too hard. All you need is your bible.

Lee Colclough

Why bother? 

Because some of us like to verify the truth about the universe around us, and see how we can apply what we've learned to making it better. I have no issue with people believing in the bible, but what's the point of existing as a species if we just blindly accept everything written down and proclaimed to be the truth.

I'll accept Genesis when you show me a version hand written by God. Until then, lets keep looking at his handiwork for ourselves!
