It says a LOT about where your faith actually lies if you have to promote a false reality to justify it.

But also;

I am a Christian

How do you reconcile these two viewpoints?

"It's all bollocks, but I still believe it."

There's nothing fundamentally christian about the text in the picture above, it's just nonsense propaganda. The whole science vs religion thing is frankly bollocks too - science shouldn't be arguing about religion it's fundamentally incompatible. OP can believe in a god, believe in an afterlife - science has nothing to say on the subject, it's not testable, it's not falsifiable it's got absolutely nothing to do with science.

I think gp is referring to the fact that there is soooo much in the Bible that defies science that is taken as truth.

Ah yeah man, I feel ya. One thing I don't really get is why there's a subset of Christianity that wants to be so combative - like all that needs to be said is "well, yes, that's pretty clever - of course god would do it that way" or "in this we better understand our maker" instead of trying to belittle what is a clearly useful and widely applied modelling tool.
