The Darwinite Myth is our Liberal Elite Creation Story. Atoms pop out of nowhere and do impossible things...culminating in ecosystems and intelligence.
If you accept it, you get promoted in Academia's priesthood. Otherwise You're an ignorant heretic. Scientific evidence points to Mind before Matter, but you must not speak this truth.

Evolution is a scientific theory, nothing more.

If it threatens your religious viewpoint, I believe that it is a personal problem.

I have no problem with evolution, the evidence is mounting up as we speak, and it has been mounting up for the last 150 years.

As I said, I have no problem with evolution, then again, I do not take Genesis literally.

Also, evolution is science, and creationism is Religion.

Beleive one or the other, or believe both, because neither of them actually contradict the other. One is science, one is religion, they can't contradict, because they are 2 different things.

The Darwinite Myth is our Liberal Elite Creation Story.

Actually, the term, "Darwinite Myth," is a false construct of bible literalists and has no real weight or meaning. Also, Darwin's works were published long before the liberal elite became a distinct "force," for lack of a better term.

Atoms pop out of nowhere...

Actually, Darwin never once mentioned "The beginning of life" in all his work, to my knowledge, and evolutionary theory does not touch on such things. Darwin was also not aware of atoms, so the "Darwinite Myth," has once again proven to be a false costruct of bible literalists. Oh, and Darwin also believed in the Christian God and happened to have a theology degree.

...and do impossible things...

I assure you that atoms have never once done impossible things. That's the nature of science. That is, if we observe it, it is therefore not impossible. If you have some cites to back up your statement that atoms have done the impossible (aside from Genesis 1-5), please educate me.

If you accept it, you get promoted in Academia's priesthood.

Not to be nitpicky, but there is no such thing as a "priesthood," in Academia. The "priesthood" is reserved for Catholicism and some of its various offshoots.

Scientific evidence points to Mind before Matter, but you must not speak this truth.

I am very excited to see this evidence of which you speak. I promise not to steal it, and will give you full credit for it. You surely do realize that this evidence will turn the scientific establishment on its head, garner you all sorts of awards and recognition, and propel your name to historically stand beside the Newtons, Pascals, and Einsteins for all eternity. Congrats.
