Some Christian groups do have problems with the TOE, some don't. I think all of them would have problems with a view of human nature based on nothing but the TOE and other scientific concepts. I also think the history of the 20th century, with scores of millions killed by atheistic totalitarian systems heavily influenced by Darwinian thinking, shows why. Again, ideas and worldviews have consequences.

I think you can find numerous mocking, sarcastic jibes at organized Christianity in this thread and in many other crevo threads.

I called your 'mocking Christianity' and now you are raising me with 'millions killed by atheistic totalitarian systems heavily influenced by Darwinian thinking'.

Okay, I'll call that. You are not mocking Evolution. You are blaming it for all the evil of the 20th century. And your assertion is laughable. No thinking rational person would believe this, any more than any thinking rational person would believe that the Holocaust didn't happen. At least now you know where you fit in, if you really believe the nonsense you posted.

hellbender, I am going to help you out here, since I am a nice guy.

Creationists (and their silly ID cousins) say, in essence, "we demand that religion be injected into the discussion about evolution." The scientific response is "Oh really? What do you have to bring to the table?" The Creationist response: "Our belief."

Well, that opens the door to comparing any and all "beliefs" to determine their validity. It doesn't mean we don't believe in the Christian God and His son, Jesus. It means we put on our science hat and evaluate "belief" as a valid tool of science, and this ALL beliefs are in play.

Objectively, any and all beliefs are "equal."

Either religion belongs in the theological sphere or it is subject to objective scrutiny that it would be better off avoiding.
