raiderboy: "How do you know?
Empirical data or anti God propaganda?"

By US law, scientists define what is or is not science.
Scientists tell us that evolution is a key element of modern natural-science.
Yes, many of those scientists are atheists but many others are not, and their explanations of fossil records are not dependent on their acceptance of any particular religion.

Indeed, the majority of Christians in the world belong to denominations which accept something called "theistic evolutionism", meaning, basically: whatever natural explanations science develops, we believe God planned & executed it for His purposes and our benefit.

I'd put it simply this way: what atheists call "natural-science" we'd call "God's natural science."
We don't try to change the science, but we acknowledge its Creator.
