Thomas Less,

23Then he said to the crowd, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross daily, and follow me. 24If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it.

How can anyone take the Bible seriously when Evolution is obviously true and the Bible is so obviously false?
