But when you buy the delusion, you can claim the evidence is faked.

Why is it a delusion if someone is confident in their conviction? It's a totally different aspect if we could absolutely see Evolution in process, but we don't and never have...so for you to claim some are delusional because they don't buy a theory is absurd. Futhermore, does it not make Evolutionist "DELUSIONAL" to beleive whole-heartedly in what even they will claim is a THEORY. Totally disregarding a written text that has shown nothing short of miraculous signs in itself leads credance to absurdity. (Any Takers?)

Necessary but not sufficient. You have to not only be confident, but proof against even an overwhelming preponderance of evidence when it contradicts your delusion.

It's a totally different aspect if we could absolutely see Evolution in process, but we don't and never have...

Some observed instances of speciation.
A few more instances.

. . . so for you to claim some are delusional because they don't buy a theory is absurd. Futhermore, does it not make Evolutionist "DELUSIONAL" to beleive whole-heartedly in what even they will claim is a THEORY.

Evolution is a fact and a theory.

I'm only disregarding it as a science book. The earth isn't young, etc. etc. Unless you're still a Young-Earth Creationist, that game ended there so I don't really see where evolution is such a big deal.

All I'm really saying is that religion doesn't belong in science class. (And no, evolution/science isn't a religion.)
