"Very afraid of slipping back into the Dark Ages of superstition and belief while others build sophisticated weapons with solid scientific knowledge."

That is pure sophistry. Evolutionary theory had no effect on the production of atomic power. Einstein himself could probably be called an ID proponent, to some extent.

The dark ages arguement is nonsense. In fact it is the very kind of arguement Dems use all the time on things like homosexuality, etc.

"Evolutionary theory had no effect on the production of atomic power"

No, but solid science did. The bomb was not built with religious belief and people's superstitions, but with hard core math.

The comparison is between beliefs ( religion) and facts (science), not between biology and physics.

Not directly, but the exact same physical principles used to produce atomic power lead to the conclusion that the Earth is about 4,500,000,000 years old. Creationists deny physics as well as geology and biology.

dark age residents BELIEVED in evolution... spontaneous generation of life from inert matter...

that's where they thought maggots came from...

and evolutionists are just as flat-earth stupid as their dark age counterparts who drilled holes in peoples heads to let the demons out, when they had migraines....

nothing more than high priests of a failing, exposed and diminishing religion of fabrications, extrapolations and double talk.

absurd.
the fool has said in his heart, there IS no God.
and though you grind a fool to powder with a mortar and pestle, yet will his foolishness NOT depart.

it's pointless to argue with foolishness driven people...
If they cannot see the living God, carved using his words, in the structure of a pine cone or a maple leaf, there is no hope convincing them with human words... written on a website blogg board...
