Originally posted by Proper KnobPerhaps abiogenesis would be a better example. After all, evolution has nothing to do with our origins. In fact, how can we study abiogenesis? When has it been observed or duplicated yet it is supposidly science.
Firstly, let's deal with this canard.
Those who challenge evolution do not only attempt to bruise egos, they challenge a secular humisitic notion that there is no God.
You've made the incorrect assumption that accepting evolution means a rejection of God. This utter tosh. There are Christian denominations who accept evolution, namely the Roman Catholic Church and the Anglican Church.
As for the rest, i'll get back to you later.
I still stand by my post regarding evolution, however. Even though some creationists believe it is a process, it is not a requirement. Conversely, those who believe there is no God have no alternative theories. In that sense they stand to loose far more than those of faith, hence, defending to the death is a requirement regardless of the challenges to its foundations.
