"Evolution is the most dominant religion on the planet,"

Come on, evolution has nothing to do with religion. If God showed up on the evening news and announced he'd created the world through A) immediate creation OR B) evolution OR C) some combination, you would still wake up the next morning confronted with the same questions of morality and salvation of the soul.

Whatever God chose to do in your hypothetical example, Evol-Doers are evangellicaly pushing their 'belief system' on others.

re·li·gion ( P ) Pronunciation Key (r-ljn) n.

1. a. Belief in and reverence for a supernatural power or powers regarded as creat[ing]or and govern[ing]or of the universe
1. b. A personal or institutionalized system grounded in such belief and worship.
2. The life or condition of a person in a religious order.
3. A set of beliefs, values, and practices based on the teachings of a spiritual leader.
4. A cause, principle, or activity pursued with zeal or conscientious devotion.

No one has ever observed anything evolve, period. It is a belief system with no scientific proof. At best, the accolytes of Evolution use inferences based on supposed evidences and call them proof. But these proofs only prove their prejudices, not of cold scientific observation.

Based on what, animal instinct? I think not. In the beginning, there was God who created it all; some of which may or may not have evolved. Takes faith in something in any case; there's no proof I'm aware of. The evos want to replace God with muck and lightning; THAT's the problem.

Evolution might be number two; football is number one.
