Reconciling Science & Religion

This morning, J said, "I know that there weren't really any people alive when the dinosaurs were on the earth."

"That's right," I said. "Can you imagine what it really would be like if there were dinosaurs and people together?"

He ignored my invitation for a discussion on that topic and asked, "So when did Adam & Eve come?"

Ah, yes. Quite interesting. And while I'm no dummy, I am pretty sure I didn't start wondering about how evolution, the fossil record, and the Bible all reconcile until I was in college.
