“Evolution is accepted, from what i see, in the same way as religion is and so I think it is justifiably called such.”

Prove this.

Nothing can be proved, one only has a hypothesis that stands until it is overturned, right?

Darwins birthday was just commemorated with celebrations, Jesus’ birthday will soon be celebrated.

Darwin's writing form the foundation of evolutionary belief, Christians have the Bible.

Darwin had his apostles, Huxley and Wallace, Jesus had the twelve.

Evolution has its guiding force, natural selection. Christian belief has the spirit of God.

Evolution explains the relationship between humans, survival of the fittest, Christianity says we are made in the image of our Creator.

Evolution has a core philosophy, materialism as in ‘The cosmos is all there is’.....Sagan. Christianity has a core philosophy of man's subjection to God. Other might be named but that's enough here.

Other might add to the list but if it is, as Merriam-Webster gives as one definition of religion, “a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith” then ““Evolution is accepted, from what I see, in the same way as religion is and so I think it is justifiably called such.”

Prove this.

You haven't noticed the sheer mountains of evidence before you on FR, so why should anyone provide more?
