The Bible is not the only holy book in this world and not the only creation fable in mythology. Impassioned pagan/WICCA arguments are not a logical way to win your debate. Funny, evolution is supposed to be founded (so say the evolutionist) in logic and reason, not emotion...it appears to me your "beliefs" in evolution have become impassioned to the point where it IS a religion.
I'm very well read in mythology as I was a literature major, I loved the stories of Greek mythology...however, the more I study of mythology, the longer I live and the more God has done for me in my life, the more I study theology and the world, the more I believe in the Bible.
Keep your illogical attacks out of a logical discussion, you are not making your side look any better.

I see the drums are beating in the deep and balrog666 arises, even as if to challenge a servant of the secret fire.
Ho hum.
Pay no attention to the image (but take a look at the dude behind the curtain).

The Bible is not the only holy book in this world and not the only creation fable in mythology. This is true, balrog666. But one hopes that mankind can gain by experience and practice in this world, such that he can articulate better understanding of the Truth of God as he goes along. That is, as he gains in experience, insight, and understanding. I think that sort of thing comes under the "law" of evolution, too.
Don't forget you have the great Greeks and Christianity to thank for laying the bases of modern science. Mankind has progressed quite a bit from these origins, and on these foundations -- wouldn't you agree?
FWIW.

Didn't CS Lewis say something to that effect as well? If anyone knew mythology, Lewis did.
