Did you have any idea your original "Creation" post was going to go in this direction? I wanted to thank you for the info on Creation. It really does look wonderful. When I taught school at Fort Worth Christian Elementary, two of my favorite videos were Veggie Tales and The Doughnut Man. I see you're involved in both of them. Good Job!
