    Forget science--these guys don't know the Bible!

    As an Observant Jew, it pains me to read about these idiots who know no Hebrew, no Aramaic, have no access to the Oral Tradition (i.e., Talmud) or the Commentators spout off on what Bereishis (i.e., Genesis) has to say about the Creation of Everything. Complete nonsense. Science does not conflict with Torah, and Torah does not conflict with Science; indeed, Science is considered to be a subset of Torah. If there appears to be a conflict (and we don't shy away from difficulties, by the way), we believe that the problem lies with our understanding of the two.
