Evolutionary science is not based upon any philosophy other than the scientific method. One can accept the theory and be of any religious faith. Most Christian denominations have no problem with acceptance of any scientific theory, including evolution.
Most scientists in the USA are, like myself, people of faith in God. Creationists are either unaware of this or try to keep that knowledge hidden.
It seems that creationists are aware that they cannot win the argument on its merits, so they attempt to mischaracterize the struggle as being “science” vs “god”; instead of the reality being the science helps us to discover the reality that God created.
Oh? The scientific method is a philosophy?
And what about naturalistic materialism? You mean science isn't based on that as well?
Look I would not have won an argument in Germany with Nazi Anthropologists either, but that would not mean I did not know enough about their field of knowledge to doubt or reject it. Science as you call it does not have all the answers. People who identity themselves as scientists for the vast majority are not scientists either.
Here are a few tenants of materialist beliefs. Think someone might see a resemblance in you?
MATERIALIST BELIEFS
Believe that the material universe, governed by natural laws and chance, is the ultimate and only reality and that all apparently nonmaterial substances, such as mind, are explicable as modifications of matter.
Believe that science is the means of understanding all the secrets of the universe, for all phenomena are the result of material processes which are governed by predictable, natural laws.
Believe that man, the highest and most complex of the evolutionary process prevailing throughout the universe, may continue to evolve into an even more perfect being or higher species (utopian materialism).
Believe in Darwin's theory of evolution as scientific fact, and in naturalism, holding that the known world is all that exists, and that it has no supernatural or spiritual creation, control or significance.
