No, they won't. Evolution was never intended to defeat the concept of Creationism, it was intended to explain how species adapt to their environment through genetic selection.

The anti-Creationists have to make massive assumptions in order to believe what they believe, which is, after all, still only a theory. But they hold that their belief is rooted in science and is therefore indisputable. I think this is the absolute epitome of blind faith, which is the accusation often leveled against Creationists.

G.K. Chesterton summed it up best when he explained that the Evolutionists find a chip of a bone and not only hypothesize what the entire creature looked like, but then make the fantastic leap of ascribing behavioral patterns and developments to that creature.

I greatly admire Chesterton. For those who are accustomed to the fog of 'reality based' philosophes, then Chesterton, Lewis et al, are as intellectually incomprehensible as "What is the odor of pi + green?"

Reality is what God perceives. Chaos is what we comprehend.
