In addition, as he bluntly told me, "denying science makes us [Conservative Christians] look stupid."

Says it neatly. There is no good way to deny a thing for which science has accumulated massive amounts of evidence over more than a century.

"[E]volution is no more the work of the devil than is Newton's theory of gravity."

I'd have more confidence in the people pushing evolution if they wouldn't make the implied claim that the theory of evolution is somehow as valid or demonstrable as the fact of gravity.

But as a lot of folks make clear, there are an endless number of bad ways to deny it.

Science has accumulated evidence; but, not for evolution. Christianity has no bicker with evidence. It's the spin put on it by evolutionists that's at question. Ala "Lucy" - science is good at manufacturing what it can't observe and hiding what it would rather not have observed.
