Science in general, and evolution in particular, is the weapon of choice by the atheists with which to bludgeon Christianity and Christians.

Any honest scientist will agree that evolution does not explain the origin of the species. Adaptation to environment can explain how things have changed over time, but inorganic matter becoming organic matter becoming self replicating is too complicated to have occurred by chance.

And then you get Dawkins and his ilk......

Adaptation to environment can explain how things have changed over time, but inorganic matter becoming organic matter becoming self replicating is too complicated to have occurred by chance.

And that is really the crux of the matter. The amount of change that is believed to occur. Creationists don't argue against variation within species and natural selection to a point. It's that as much occurred as the evolutionists claim that's the problem.

And for that difference of opinion and interpretation of the fossil record, we're branded "cretards", and other pejoratives.

The honest scientists in the field of evolutionary beliefs are far and few between. The ones who are honest acknowledge the weaknesses or reject it in its totality.

Is that a "fact?" Each one of us is an example of "impossible odds" made possible.
