Those are huge inducements to believe, let's face it.' Whose side was I on, I wondered. So did Mark.

What's the point in having life's anchor of hope set in sand?' Mark demanded, still frowning, leaning back and lifting his chair's two front legs off the floor as he clasped his hands behind his head. 'And we've just decided we've been taking the Bible too literally, haven't we?' Indeed we had. My shoulders slumped. This parable reconciles Christianity's Bible with the notion that evolution is God's plan, despite which the world as it presently exists could end in our lifetimes.
