The bigotry against evangelistic Christians is the most disturbing thing about this thread.
Evangelistic Christians are not the only religious people who do not subscribe to Darwinism. The Vedics have recently been attacked for coming up with the theory of devolution. The funny thing is none of the evolution radicals ever attack the Vedics as being stupid or unscientific. You have reserved these insults for Christians who disagree with you.
I doubt most Muslims believe in Darwin's Theory of Evolution , but I don't see the same arrogant desire to shove Darwin down the throats of Islamic children.

That's because they live in theocracies and don't allow anything but Creationism to be taught.

There is something kinda funny about all this, in a sad way.
The mandatory and strict adherence to a particular dogma in science is that it is not scientific unless an unsuption is made that there is no God. That any acknowledgment of the possibility of a creator is superstition and not science.
Therefor, all deductive reasoning must be based off of an inductive conclusion that there is no God.
It is intellectually crippling, just as it was when the old Soviet Union demanded all scientific papers adhere to Dialectic Materialism. In fact, the Soviet's dogmatic adherence isn't even an analogy..it is the exact same perversion of the scienctific process.
Science simply cannot check the box of Yes God or No God and still be deduction, at this point they have to assume it is an unknown. Anything else is an act of faith..which does belong in philosophy and theology.
Right now, the scientific community as a whole is hell bent on conforming to Materialism....as per Marx, not even Hegel.

I'm sure that the Vedics and Muslims are welcome to come along and make stupid or unscientific posts and they can have some too...

If the Vedics or the Muslims were on this thread saying the same thing as the "evangelicals", they'd be getting the same response.
