Galileo was a Christian, who said, "God is known by nature in his works, and by doctrine in his revealed word." He was quite a scientist, and quite a Christian.
You honestly believe that one cannot be both a Christian and scientifically sound? What about Galileo?
Why so quick to insult those of us who are Christians who've concluded that evolution is scientifically lacking, and that it's more reasonable to believe the theory that a Creator is responsible for "all this"?
The point of my posts are to say that it's a bad move for Christians to take any position at all regarding evolution. That has absolutly nothing to do with the idea that "one cannot be both a Christian and scientifically sound". It is actually the opposite.
When Christians push creationism, and even Intellegent Design (when it's done as an alternative form of creationism) it can do no good whatever, and perhaps a great deal of harm, to Christianity.
If Christians stake a huge claim in creationism/ID, then the young student who goes off to college and see's the huge amount of evidence for evolution will be forced to evaluate his faith and make decisions. However, if that young student was taught that the Bible is a guide to living and other religious matters, NOT a science textbook, then he can decide whatever he wants about evolution and not run the risk of losing his faith.
