As a Christian I’ve never understood why it is an article of faith to some people that the theory of evolution be proved wrong. For myself I really don’t care what science does or does not prove, it has no effect on my faith.

Christ used many parables to illustrate His points. It doesn't diminish Christian faith to realize that the parables were stories. I think of Genesis the same way.

The main problem, as I see it, is that evolution is violation of God creating things and declaring they reproduce "after its own kind."

Same here, but I'm Catholic and all I need to believe is that God is reponsible for all Creation and that at some point He breathed life into Man. The rest of it is a lot of noise and I'm not sure why people get so worked up about it.

You are wise.

those who look for science to prove faith have little understanding of either.
