Ah I just love how 'conservative' atheists magically turn into flaming liberals when confronted with anything that questions their religion. I seem to recall a pharisaic attitude that once said the earth the center of the Universe. Wasn't Galileo a Christian? Ah, yes, he was. Hmm... So we have Christian Scientists vs. the 'religious' establishment. Sounds like a familiar story going on today.

Support of evolution is not synonymous with atheism, regardless of what your prejudices might be whispering in your ear.

Okay, I'll bite -- who on this thread has "magically turned into flaming liberals" in your fevered imagination? And what "religion" might you be speaking of? Hint: If you don't know the difference between science and religion, your "contributions" on this subject are likely to be of minimal value.

I seem to recall a pharisaic attitude that once said the earth the center of the Universe.

...supported by Biblical verses, too.

Wasn't Galileo a Christian? Ah, yes, he was. Hmm...

Persecuted by the church for daring to state the plain truth...

So we have Christian Scientists vs. the 'religious' establishment. Sounds like a familiar story going on today.

Whatever. Some people seem to enjoy feeling persecuted. Did you have anything to add to this thread other than that?

What gets my goat is how so-called conservatives denie the insights of Adam Smith and give aid and comfort to communists and socialists. ID is isomorphic with socialism. Nothing happens unless it is planned.
