The reference is to the Egyptian god Khepri moving the sun in the form of a beetle.

How many Christian schools teach evolution? How many Sunday school teachers say, "Of course, Creationism is just one theory. Some people believe the equally viable alternative theory of evolution."

If you still hold the same views now as you did in high school, you probably should reexamine those views.
