There is absolutely no doubt about it here. It’s very sad that so many do believe in evolution.

I really have no problem with people believing in evolution just so long as they don't try and trump it as a Fact!

But you're right, it is said so many believe in such a farce and turn a blind eye to the evidence for ID when commons sense dictate is all around them.

Oh, I love these aruments that evolution is not a fact.

Let’s get this stratight. A fact is a verifiable observation. A theory (in science) is a comprehensive system of explanation for many observations. It is not the same as an hypothesis.

Evolution is a Theory. That does not mean that it is tentative, unproven, or not. It is a thoeory, just as is the Atomic Theory of matter, the Theory of Gravity, the Theory of Plate Tectonics.

All those theories are true, by the way.

And I have no problem with people being (antievolutionary) creationists, just so long as they don't try and use political means or pressure tactics to force creationist views into science classrooms that have not independently earned scientific standing on merit.
