It seems you are woefully ignorant.

Sure, I'm ignorant about Evolutionism. Likewise, I don't know jack about Buddhism or Hinduism or Wiccanism or Paganism or ... etc. Thus far, I have zero interest in the minutia of such lies. For now, I need to learn more about the truth. Granted, some Christians are called to know all about one or more of your cults, probably to more effectively evangelize to them.

When I was in grade school, I was quite fascinated by the whole evolution thing and how the Leakys were finding the remains of our prehistoric ancestors in Africa. Decades later, God used that interest to show me the truth. So, as it turned out, He used National Geographic and the Leakys to give me eternal life. What a deal!

Creationists make real Christians look bad

Oh, so there are no truly intelligent "creationists."

Your "real" Christians don't believe God's word is true. Their god either lied when he said he created the universe in six days, or he is unable to preserve the truth of his word. So, any or all of their beliefs are subject to change if something more palatable comes down the pike. That's the bottom line.

the Christian God's qualities are manifestly NOT "clearly seen."

On the contrary, just as it says, they ARE clearly seen. You see the evidence of the Creator all around you but, you refuse to believe. You would rather believe anything than consider there is a Creator you must and will answer to someday.

Most people look at the world and don't come away Christian.

God's word says it will be that way. Here's a news flash for you: The majority is sometimes wrong.

most also retain the religious faith of their upbringing.

So what? No one has to. A lot of us didn't.

Wow. Willful ignorance combined with religious bigotry all in one post.

Kudos.

Then pull your head out. If you don't know even the basics, why do you bother debating?

Oh, sure there are. Intelligence is not proof against being deluded, especially when it comes to easy answers that promise eternal bliss.

> You would rather believe anything than consider there is a Creator you must and will answer to someday.

Ah, breathe it in, folks. That's the scent of pure, unadulterated Christian PRIDE. The sort of pride that leads people to honestly believe that other peopel don't believe as they do because those other people are immoral.
