The intemperate - even rabid - response of the "evolution answers everything" crowd suggests a proof of a greater agenda.
Yet most people still believe God is the creator. Looks like the Darwinists still have work to do.
The real problem is that Darwinism is not just being used to teach elements of biology to children - it's being used as a foundation to "disprove" the existence of a Creator to generations of students.
What's your evidence for this assertion?
Lumping all this together under the term "Darwinism" is a misnomer. Leads to muddled thinking.
You've got it exactly backward. It's a particular brand of Christian Fundamentalists (*not* Catholics, not Jews, and not some other Christian denominations) that set themselves up as the *true* knowledge base for earths history over the top of science, that is the problem. If these few Christian sects would acknowledge that the Bible is not a scientific text, and teach that there can be no conflict between science and the Bible, then the problem goes away.
Science cannot speak to the issue of whether there was a "creator" or not. All it can speak to is the history of what happened, not whether there was a supernatural entity that made it happen. It is true that some atheists seize on evolution to attack religion. But they are easily disarmed, as the Catholic church has disarmed them, by acknowledging that Genesis is not science, and can be interpreted easily to fit the scientific understanding of early earths history.
