Whoohoo! You're so cute when you're sanctimonius.

Let me be the first to say thank you for letting us know that there is nothing wrong in believing in God and Creation. I can come out of my hole now.

Now, I can't speak for my fellow ignoramuses but I can say with a high level of confidence and self-validation that I do not reject any and all science that clash with my religion, In fact, I find God in all that science discovers or proves or validates or explains. If evolution is indeed fact and therefore undeniable truth, it is God's work. If not, it is still God's work. All is God's work. Even you my breathless friend, are God's work.

My objection to evolutionism is that the folks pushing it are lying. They look you in the face and say that it has nothing to do with God. Well, it does. They have faith that God does not exist (A fact, as it were), then come up with evolution (The theory to the fact) to prove it.

Let evolution into the schools. It just an argument for crying out loud. Then let creationism in too. But stop with the science stuff. Put where it belongs; Religious Studies.

Lastly, all those men cited were great indeed. But it is telling that you left out (a glaring omission) the man who is most responsible for this thread. Darwin himself. Did you mean to leave him off your "great" list?

Oh! I forgot. Nice use of the biblical "Not fit to [shine] the shoes of..." in your last paragraph. Did you realize? I think not. Perhaps God's speaking through you...

If I ever get sanctimonious, you'll have no trouble mistaking it for my current posts.

Why are you getting snotty when we happen to agree on this point?

I didn't say that you had.

In fact, I find God in all that science discovers or proves or validates or explains. If evolution is indeed fact and therefore undeniable truth, it is God's work. If not, it is still God's work. All is God's work. Even you my breathless friend, are God's work.

We do not disagree on this point.

My objection to evolutionism is that the folks pushing it are lying.

Just a moment ago you were attempting to defend someone's falsehoods on the grounds that it's all "just faith", no one can claim to have "the" facts. And now you suddenly accuse a group of outright lying for having a different opinion than yourself. Does the word "hypocrite" sound familiar?

They look you in the face and say that it has nothing to do with God.

Really? Who, exactly, "looks you in the face" and tells you this? And how large a group is that, out of all the people who accept evolutionary biology? Be specific. Are you slandering millions of Americans and thousands of your fellow Freepers, or just a tiny fringe group which you want to obsess over and bitch about any time any of the rest of us use that nasty "evolution" word in your presence?

Well, it does. They have faith that God does not exist (A fact, as it were),

This is hardly the first time you have shown a great confusion between the concepts of "faith" and "fact". They are hardly the same thing.

then come up with evolution (The theory to the fact) to prove it.

Absolute and complete rubbish. This is a common falsehood about evolutionary biology, promulgated by its critics, but it is in no way true. Even among atheistic evolutionists, I can not think of a single example which actually meets your description. I doubt you can either. You are stating your presumptions as if they were fact, without first having established their truth beyond your mere belief in them.

Let evolution into the schools. It just an argument for crying out loud.

No, it is far, far more than that. If you don't understand why, you shouldn't be recommending curricula.

Then let creationism in too.

Sorry, the Constitution bars that.

But stop with the science stuff. Put where it belongs; Religious Studies.

If you mean that evolutionary biology belongs in "religious studies", you are grossly mistaken. Please try to learn something about a topic before you make confident pronouncements about it based on your lack of knowledge.

Lastly, all those men cited were great indeed. But it is telling that you left out (a glaring omission) the man who is most responsible for this thread. Darwin himself. Did you mean to leave him off your "great" list?

It wasn't my list, metmom posted it. I was commenting on her choices.

Oh! I forgot. Nice use of the biblical "Not fit to [shine] the shoes of..." in your last paragraph. Did you realize? I think not.

There you go, jumping to false conclusions again.

Perhaps God's speaking through you...

I would be foolish to either agree with *or* deny that, wouldn't I?
