Ah, but it is a religion...
You have to have FAITH in order for that theory to hold any shred of truth. No evidence exists for it, never has, and in my view, it never will. So you advocate the teaching of a baseless theory that requires faith, but to offer an alternate theory than the one you have your faith in, well you just cannot stand for that. Sounds a little hypocritical to me...

"You have to have FAITH in order for that theory to hold any shred of truth. No evidence exists for it, never has, and in my view, it never will."

Horse manure. Your unwillingness to examine the overwhelming evidence in now way demonstrates there is not evidence. Evolution is one of the best supported theories in the history is science.

Patently false. There is plenty of evidence for the theory, or it wouldn't be a "theory." Words mean things, after all.

You might not want to admit it, but the evidence is there. Even the defenders of ID admit the evidence - they have to. They assert that evolution did in fact happen as the ToE posits, they only want to find some underlying cause.

Gender: Female (species presumed to be sexually dimorphic) (1, 8)

Cranial Capacity: 850 cc (1, 3, 4)

Information: Tools found in same layer (8, 9). Found with KNM-ER 406- A. boisei (effectively eliminating single species hypothesis) (1)
