Unless there is a purpose to evil. It seems that faith as it applies to religion and thus to life, is more important than knowledge. At least that’s the message of Christianity.

I'm not into pushing religion of any sort. I'll RECOMMEND Christianity if somebody WANTS a recommendation, but even Voodoo and Rastafari are better than evolution: neither Voodoo nor Rastafari requires any sort of a belief in a trans-finite sequence of probabilistic miracles and neither Voodoo nor Rastafari has two world wars or 300,000,000 dead bodies lying around on account of it.

Evolution is junk science and as junk science goes, a spectacularly pernicious and dangerous flavor of it. Evolution was the philosophical corner stone of Nazism and Communism and the various eugenics movements. Worse, despite its having been thoroughly debunked over the last 100 years, its adherents still dominate discussions of it by sheer weight of numbers and decibel level.

You even see that on conservative forums like FR and in fact the argument you generally see is "Hey, you're making all of us (conservatives) look like kooks (by saying anything about evolution) and, funny thing, evolutionism appears to transcend left/right barriers. The evolutionist postings you see on FR or the Limbaugh or Coulter forums are basically indistinguishable from those you'd see on DU or anything else like that.
