For what? LOL! Atheism?
For what? LOL! Atheism?
No, for explaining facts. That is what a theory does.
The theory of evolution explains millions of facts (including the fossil record, geology, biology, dating, the various genomes that have been deciphered, etc.). A powerful theory, such as the theory of evolution, also allows predictions to be successfully made.
The theory of evolution is currently the only theory in science explaining these facts. This is common in science. Many fields started with competing hypotheses, and the evidence finally supported one while contradicting the others. That theory is still subject to modification as new data arise, but don't look for it to be overturned any time soon.
Many world religions have no problem reconciling belief and science. One example is the late Pope. He was hardly an atheist.
