Which says more about your character, than it does his.
No argument there.

Care to give some of your money to BIO or BIMI?

The 10/40 Window could use it.

Seeing as how the Torah is a Jewish text, I was curious how Jews feel about allegorical vs literal interpretation of Genesis.

It seems that all but the most conservative Jewish sects are fine with evolution:

Even Maimonides, the 12th century Jewish scholar, was cool with interpreting scripture as allegory when presented with scientific evidence:

@xianghua - Your profile says you are Jewish, what's your take? Mine is that science suggests evolution occurred. I have no problem believing that God created the universe, used evolution as His tool, and imbued us with souls.
hi. my position is that evolution is wrong and can show you why. as a start: do you think that a spinning motor is evidence for design or a natural process?

It depends on the "spinning motor." If there is no evidence of human manufacture then it may not be possible to tell.
