You are assuming that based on your past experience.

The thing an evo cannot get their hands around, is that their basis is faith too based on their presuppositions that there is no God...which is secular humanism.

A faith!

If you want to talk in terms of pejoratives like myth...we both have one...you just refuse to recognize yours.

Codswllop. You are claiming that Roman Catholics, many Protestants, most Jews, most Hindus anf most Buddhists are secular humanists.

The only religious group that shares your "creationist" beliefs is Islam.

That is absolutely untrue.

Your particular faith has no place in a scientific discussion. I assure you the American Indian just as fervently believes that the world started from a Brahma who stayed in an egg for a year.

TToE is silent on the existance of any Supreme Being. UNderstanding TToE does not make one any sort of anything as far as religion is concerned.

A believed myth is still a myth. Myth is not pejorative at all. It is denotative for beliefs which have no measurable proof. And it is the ONLY word we can use to categorize Creation Stories.
