So many are so eager to say "you're not a real Christian if you believe in evolution"...

Not really. We say that BELIEVEING in Evolution will make it HARD to be a Christian.

Darwin sure thought so!


No matter WHICH side of the C vs E thing you fall on, it'll be your faith in Christ that is the determing item, heaven wise.

Preposterous. There are many, many people of faith working in the sciences and engineering, including the biological sciences. One does not need to "believe" in evolution. Belief is for faith. One only needs to understand evoultionary theory, as one would understand plate tectonics or circuit theory.

It's unfair to construe Darwin's loss of faith as the sole result of his scientific work, when certainly the loss of a close family member may have shaken his faith as much as anything.
