The theory of evolution is a common force used against Christianity -- which is a common force against Conservatism. Simple story.

Simple and wrong. Most people who accept evolution in the USA are Christian.

Try again.

You are mistaken. The vast majority of evolutionary scientists don't say anything about religion.

Yes, a handful of scientists (we're talking maybe three or four) attempt to use the theory of evolution to argue against religion. There are just as many evolutionary scientists who oppose them and aruge that evolution in no way conflicts with Christianity: Kenneth Miller, Francis Collins, and Keith Miller, just to name a few.

Evolution is neither against God nor for God. Evolution simply tells us about the natural world. It says nothing about the supernatural and nothing about moral philosophy.

There is some truth to this.
