I guess I'm not the only person in the world to get ranty emails from devout Christians.
Although I'm interested in skepticism in general, I have a tendency to gravitate towards one particular form of pseudoscience (alternative medicine) and, in particular, a certain kind of that particular form of pseudoscience, namely antivaccine quackery.

Thank you! Man, did I need a laugh today!
Black is fucking hilarious!!
Heh. That dude is brilliant! We need more Lewis Black on The Daily Show!

Time of course is relative, Einstein taught us that. 7 days travelling at the speed of light is a long time. And perhaps on the 1st day when light was created (before the sun), that was the quantum zero point energy field, not sun or star light.
The idea that man has been around only 6000 years is of course absurd, but fundamentalists of any religion tend to be nuts. Thats why Catholicism would not allow the average joe to interpret the scriptures, that concept came with reformation and the printing press, allowing every man to own a bible and come to his own interpretations.
Now we have Dan Brown telling everyone in his latest book that the secrets (ancient mysteries) of the one true cosmic religion and science are locked up in the bible and other ancient religous writings, and they prove that the collective conscious of man is god (once you unlock the code) and gave us the string theory via the Kabbalah. Maybe they got that knowledge from the dinosaurs or aliens acting as Gods helpers.
