And Creationism played a big role in the extermination of the native peoples by the Spanish. Well, one could argue that point with just as much (il)logic.

If you argue against Darwinism/evolution, you're arguing against fact. I'm a Christian, and I see clearly that Darwin was exactly right. His theories have been confirmed a thousand ways to Sunday, and it's just sad to see that we are still denying them. Do we want to deny the existence of atoms, too?

Hitler misused everything. Just because survival of the fittest is an undeniable fact doesn't mean that it's a normative statement (that we should practice it).

You may think that you are a Christian, but your post is that of a true dreamer.

Gould admitted hundreds of times that the evidence was in opposition to the premises of evolution; do you think that you know more about it than he did?

Sorry for the plagiarism: I couldn't resist. Couldn't have said it better myself, so I chose instead to say what you said again: it bears repeating and putting in bold. Well said!

Where do you get that????

The conquistadors were basically in it for the money and the only protection the Indians ever had was the church people who came along with. Prior to the white man landing in the Americas of course, the biggest problem most central and south Americans had in life was getting cooked and eaten by Aztecs and Mayas. Christians put a stop to that sort of crap in the bargain.

Go for it.
