Still, the theists are brazen. While they will not allow their sacred mysteries of their god-view to be proven (although the bible says repeatedly "prove me now this day") they do not extend the same convenient applications towards evolution. Instead, they couch evolution as a competing FAITH or RELIGION.

You already have enough evidence of God's existence to be held accountable by Him for your rejection of Him, and it is implicit in your own words. While expressly denying God you tacitly presuppose reason, standards and values that are only coherent, grounded and justified if God exists. Why, for example, would an accidental Darwinian conglomeration of atoms have something against brazenness? Why would such a bipedal unit expect that the universe or anything in it, including other bipedal units, should be "fair"? How do you account for and justify your expectations of absolute, obligatory standards of reciprocity regarding reason and ethics from other bipedal units?

Cordially,
