Learn!

Why are Christians so willing to remain dumb and stupid? Why won't they just go and spend some time and learn the facts? I just got out of a class at a christian college when the professor brought up the question of evolution and the purpose of life. I started getting sick as the Sunday school answers started flying.

"We know that evolution is false because the bible tells us so."
"God loves us and he exists because the bible tells us so."
"The bible is trustworthy because it's really old."
"Christians are here on earth to HELP God save other people."
"I'm going to college because it's a place to learn and get a degree."

Please stop or I will shurly hurl. True, The bible is true. If you believe something just because it tells you that it's true you really shouldn't be in college. Mainly because you are ignorant and are willing to remain dumb. If there is a God who has laws don't you think that there would be evidence of him? Is life all that there is? Is God is just some idea. I'm not saying that you don't need to have faith, or that you need evidence for every single thing. Come on though, the bible says "be ready to give an answer" God will give you the words to speak but he doesn't want you to remain ignorant. God gave you a brain for a reason, Please use it.
