God is hermaphrodite and made man and woman by spitting its twin genitals in two. It's in Genesis somewhere.Sledog said: -

The sun and stars don’t come until day 4 though. So not only are there plants before the sun but there’s light. That’s a doozy.dnc said:

Not bad guesses based on the knowledge available to them at the time. They got some of the order wrong - e.g., plants before light - but did figure out that the animals came before us monkeys.RaceBannon said:

Last week my kid got an estimate to get his brakes done. I laughed when I saw how much it was.RaceBannon said:

When I got home the next day he had his car up on jack stands and had the parts laying there. I asked if he needed some help and he waved me off.
I had a couple drinks and he came up the stairs about an hour later. Brakes done, money saved. I told him he should take all the scratch he saved and spend it on hookers and blow.
That's when my vengeful woman story started. -

One of my dads is skeptical of evolution. Big church guy. I didn't mention it when he left my mom. The divorce being a sin part is just silly, but that Darwin guy is full of shit.

Been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that I didnt really understand any of their work, it was too artsy, too intellectual.RaceBannon said:

It was on Duke where Phil Collins presence became more apparent. Invisible touch is the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility at the same time it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding 3 albums. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Bannks, Collins and Rutherford you can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship and sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism.
Take the lyrics to "Land of Confusion", in this song, Phil Collins adresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980's, about monogomy and commitment, the song is extremely uplifting...their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock.
Phil Collins solo career, it seems to be more commercial...and therefore more satisfying in a narrower way. Especially songs like in the air tonight and against all odds. I also think, Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. -
