Isn't there a professor who wrote about the "Techno-myth", which modern
humans, not having a mythology of their own, invented to replace the need
for unexplainable phenomena. Or is that just something randomly thrown
into a movie I saw because it sounded cool?
Also, I wonder if anyone could help me... I am looking for any texts/journal
articles supporting a creationist view of history. Although I personally
believe in evolution, I like to see what 'the other side' has to say, and in
all my arguments with creationists they constantly quote 'sources' but never disclose them. Any help?
