She's majoring in a biological field (wildlife management), she loves adventuring in the outdoors and she is extremely intelligent. When I first met her she seemed nearly perfect... But strangely we didn't agree on many scientific issues. For example, she thinks it is ridiculous that one of her classmates considers humans an invasive species. Hmmm, ridiculous eh? She also seemed to have an extreme dislike for philosophical thought, especially existentialism...oh well, I thought I could live with that, although it seemed strange that a scientist wouldn't be interested in such important topics (to science geeks) as the philosophy of scientific thinking. Still, it seemed like everytime we'd get into a scientific discussion she'd get a little angry or frustrated at some point.... A few weeks ago I found out why. She admitted that she doesn't believe in evolution. Ok. Umm, well I didn't expect that... That really changed things for me. She went from being someone I felt could really relate to me (even if she didn't agree) into someone I had to be very careful not to offend. Then she told me that in 'her world' the earth is only 4000 years old. She tried to quote scientific evidence to prove this... Eck. Well, that was fun while it lasted. I broke up with her. I think it is sick that someone would hide something like that for so long from someone they cared about. I feel used. |
