The author is correct when he says that the biggest argument between evolutionists and Christians is not scientific, but philosophical. Evolutionists believe that the universe began in chaos and is evolving toward perfection: normativist Christians believe that the universe was created perfect and is degenerating into chaos. These two philosophies are absolutely irreconcilable, and any attempt at reconciliation (such as "theistic evolution") is doomed to failure from before its inception.

As a matter of fact, Zionism and fundamentalist Islam have much more in common than do Christianity and evolutionism. Perhaps we ought to practice by making permanent peace in the Middle East before we try to take on a task as gargantuan as the evolutionist-Christian debate.

Really? That's what evolutionists believe? I've never heard that. Can you cite one living scientist in the evolution camp who believes that the universe is evolving towards perfection?
