Co-Workers and "Evil"olution
We hired 2 new cashiers this week and neither of them believe in the Theory of Evolution (I know, odd conversation starter, but it breaks the ice quite well). I figured I'd give them a few months before telling them all the evidence for it, but I'm not sure it will do much good.
I have talked with another 2 co-workers quite a bit about it. I explained the fossil record, genetic and chromosomal evidence, etc. And you know what they said? "Wow, evolution does have a lot of evidence. But I don't want to believe it". I reply with "are you telling me you can push all this evidence to the side of your brain and just ignore it even though you know it's true?" The reply was "yes".
Sad. Someday I will try to understand the thought processes of the bible belt.
So how should I go about the 2 new co-workers?
