I recently read a good little article in the BBC about David Attenborough. Here's the link:
BBC NEWS | UK | Attenborough 'received hate mail' but two parts really resonated with me:
Sir David said that people asked why his documentaries did not give "credit" to God for the creation of life.
"They always mean beautiful things like hummingbirds."
"I always reply by saying that I think of a little child in East Africa with a worm burrowing through his eyeball."
"The worm cannot live in any other way, except by burrowing through eyeballs."
"I find that hard to reconcile with the notion of a divine and benevolent creator."
and another...
Sir David said it was "terrible" when creationism and evolution were taught in schools as equivalent, alternative perspectives.
"It's like saying that two and two equals four, but if you wish to believe it, it could also be five."
I love David Attenborough
