I was thinking about the fallacy that atheist=evolutionist christian=creationist.
It is probably true that most atheists accept evolution and totally untrue that everybody who accepts evolution is an atheist, I was wondering how I came to accept evolution.
The first thought that came up was "highschool", of course, but thinking a bit more I came to the conclusion that this was not right at all.
I remember being taken to the Dordogne Valley in France to see the caves and museums on our Cro-Magnon ancestors before I could read, having books on dinosaurs (real ones, telling you about millions of years ago) and being facinated by the bone-fragments and 3-d Models of ape to human skulls in the local zoo.
It really was like one of those many things we kind of know for a long time and then get the details and the science behind it in school, like a rainbow being white light split into "7" colours and the physics behind it.
So, what's your story?
