Evolution has nothing to do with proving or disproving a creator, of course. It's a scientific explanation for the origin of species in the same way plate tectonics is an explanation for the origin of mountains and oceans.

Evolution is a theory.

I have no problems with the concept of evolution as a science per se....but its claims have been perverted and misused by politicians in the social policy arena, being used to undermine faith and being used to justify the horrors of Nazi racism and communist slaughters of the 20th century.

Pure science and its practitioners would avoid the use of science to justify questional political policy.
