I agree, people who believe in absolute creationism as it is set forth in biblical tomes are ignorant, but I have no more right than you to force them to change their beliefs.
What if one system of beliefs leads to greater well-being for a person, or a society.
Surely a State government ripping out the hearts of human sacrifices for the rain god isn't on par with a secular democracy? Why should all of our beliefs not be rooted in fact and subject to criticism. Or are your ancient partially secularized beliefs above such criticism?
