Your thought leads to a question...do you believe that ones views concerning evolution/literal creation/ID belief, are matters of salvation?
Many on these CREVO threads, do indeed, tell those who support evolution, that by doing so, they are risking their souls, they will surely go to Hell and burn forever(and to my chagrin, they actually seem to delight in this notion)...
Others, who do not support evolution, and may support literal creation or ID, that I have chatted with via Freepmail, do not seem to take this same stand...they believe that those who support evolution are mistaken, but they do not also believe that the support of evolution alone, condemns ones soul...
There seems to be a split among those who do not support evolution, as to whether or not, support of evolution leads one to damnation...
I find this quite curious...
No. When I first became a Christian I was a believer in evolution. It did not affect my salvation. However, as I learned more and more about the God who created me and who became flesh and dwelt among us and who died on the cross for my sins, the more I realized that evolution was simply not compatible with the God of the Bible.

I'm not sure I've actually seen that. I do believe, however, that those who mock God and who insist that he did not do as he himself claimed and who trivialize the creation are standing on sandy soil. I would not want to be in their shoes when I stand before God. We will all stand before God and make an accounting of our lives. If we spend our days ridiculing God and making light of his work, we should not be surprised when we are visited by God's wrath.
Now I may be as wrong as rain on this whole God thing. My belief in creation is based upon faith. While I see evidence of the majesty of God's creation, the evidence I have for my beliefs is admittedly not empirical, it is the evidence of things unseen.

Ultimately "sin" is what leads to damnation. We all do it. We all will continue to do it.
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (Romans 3:23 KJV)
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23 KJV)
