What evolution teaches is fantasy--anti-gravity---fairy tales.

Nope. Evolution is the best model we have to date that describes the diversity and development of life here on this planet. I suggest you really sit down, take a month and read the links that PatrickHenry and Junior have so thoughtfully provided. It may give you a new perspective/outlook on the living world.

I've always looked at it this way. If someone cannot say that it is possible that future evidence might discredit a holy book, or that new discoveries might cause one to think that the tenents of a religion are false, or that empirical evidence might discredit a philosophical or religious idea, then the book, tenent or idea is not scientific.

Everything in science is open to future revision based upon new evidence. Everything. If a religious theory cannot abide by the same rule, that it might be seen as false in light of new evidence, then it doesn't ask or answer a scientific question.
