Augustine is describing the young-earth creationists, but you don't even understand that you -- not scientists -- are the ones hurting the cause of Christ and preventing others from believing.

Actually, I'm a credentialed scientist - an organic chemist, in fact - with a real-live post-graduate degree from one of them big ol' university-type places, and I don't believe in evolution, nor in any of the philosophical rigmarole used to support it.

Tell us, what are you're scientific credentials?

I have a BS in chemistry and a BS in chemical engineering -- both from major universities. I worked 16 years using both degrees, and owned an environmental consulting for 6 of those years. For the last 8-1/2 years, I've been in computer science.

We may not be that far off. While I believe that evolution produces some changes -- like a mutating virus or even a different species of seal -- I don't believe that all life evolved from, say, a single amoeba. My problems with evolution as it is taught today are scientific, not religious. God certainly created life, but Genesis really does not go into the how.
