These discussions remind me too often of ELITEST Leftist threads where they ridicule the opposing view (Creationists) to gross measures. Keep science out of politics unless it actually "matters" to the politics -- the majority of Conservatives are of a differing opinion than "elitist" troll posters.

Simple question:

What value is human life to an Evolutionist versus that of a Christian? How do Evolutionists view abortion?

I gaurantee their views are not those of the common Conservative.

False analogy fallacy. Your question presumes accepting evolution as valid science is mutually exclusive with being a Christian. It is not, thus your question is founded upon a false premise and thus is meaningless.

How do Evolutionists view abortion?

This question is also meaningless because opinions on this subject will vary. There is no one answer that will be true for all who accept evolution as valid science.

I gaurantee their views are not those of the common Conservative.

Your guantaree is clearly invalidated because it relies on faulty premises.

The theory of evolution, like all scientific theories, is morally neutral. Hence it cannot tell you what the value of human life is. For that you need religion and moral philosophy. Hence the value that an "evolutionist" puts on human life depends on his religion and/or ethical philosophy.

As a Catholic who accepts evolution, I place just as high, if not a higher value on human life than your typical creationist. I'm pro-life, as are nearly all practicing Catholics, who also mostly happen to accept the theory of evolultion.

How do Evolutionists view abortion?

Again, it depends on their religion and/or moral philosophy. The theory of evolution provides no guidance in this area. Some are pro-life, others are not.

I gaurantee their views are not those of the common Conservative.

Evolution is neither liberal nor conservative. There are liberal evolutionists and conservative ones.

This evo is pro-life.

Any more false assumptions you want to toss out?
