Looks a little like a turf war, doesn't it? Like the pro-evos should not be required to answer questions?

Well, of course not. They have the (lack of) God on their side...

The two of you have a rather odd viewpoint. I am, in your terminology, "pro-evo" (that is, I accept that the theory of evolution provides the best current explanation for diversification of biological organisms). But I am not in the least interested in "proving that God does not exist."

Indeed, of the thousands of biologists working on a daily basis within the framework of the theory of evolution, you might (and I emphasize "might") be able to come up with one, two, or maybe three who have such a peculiar goal.

One reason is that the theory says nothing one way or the other about God. Another reason is that, like me, a large number of "pro-evos" are devout and practicing Christians.

So I guess the question is, what are your motivations when you globally attribute to "pro-evos" an antagonism to Christianity?

Dishonest creationist tactic #437: equivocate acceptance of evolution with atheism.
