A great many religious groups, from the Catholic Church to innumerable Protestant sects to virtually all branches of Judaism have no problem with acknowledging evolution. If the author is concerned that denying science may be a barrier to converting the growing group of non religious people in the US, maybe - and this is just a suggestion - don’t deny science. The largest organized group that seems to have a problem with evolution is, weirdly, Islam.

"If Darwin and the Darwinian theory of evolution explain the origins of us (and everything else"

Yet Darwinian evolution provides no such explanation nor does it claim to. It cannot explain the origin of life nor is there any evidence that mutation is the engine that fuels natural selection.

Sorry but there is no such thing as ‘settled science’. The very phrase is a contradiction in terms. If it’s science, it’s not settled. If it’s settled, it’s not science.

Noble gases could not form chemical compounds was “settled science”.

Crystals must create repetitious patterns was “settled science”.

We hear this same ‘science denier’ or ‘settled science’ crap regarding Climate Change… It’s questioning science – not denying science – and that’s how it works.

Sorry but evolution makes much sense. However atheists still can’t prove that 0 x 0 does not equal zero. Until someone can conclusively explain how something came out of nothing, the concept of God cannot be disproved.
