Yes. There are also Christians who vote for clintoon and support abortion and homosexual rights and any number of wrong causes. It is not up to me to judge their salvation, but I can judge their beliefs and actions because the Bible guides me.
Why is evolution incompatible with Christianity? Because it says that the Bible is not true. When you start denying the truth in the Bible, like in claiming that the meaning of "day" might be 400 million years, (no, a day means a day), then you invite the denial of other parts as well.
The spread of the idea of evolution is absolutely crucial in the destruction of Christianity as it attacks the very basis ofJudism and Christianity; that God created.
Besides, I have seen much more evidence of a worldwide flood than evolution. I have seen too much circular logic in evolution. I have seen outright deception and lies. I have seen the evolutionists simply ignore any evidence that didn't fit in the right place. I have seen evolutionists denounce and sneer at anyone who places their faith in God rather than men. I have seen mathematical evidence for the argument of a young earth.
I simply choose to believe God.
I think I saw that cartoon once - It's about a guy who can't keep his saxophone to himself, right? ;)

LOL! Funny, I always thought judgement was reserved for a higher power, and that, in addition, there was also room for tolerance and love in Christianity - Though your login name certainly has an old-testament ring to it... OK, if you want to decide morality and apply it to the rest of, based on your own personal reading of the Bible (which is going to exclude not only a lot of non-Christians, religious and otherwise, but a lot of Christians as well), be my guest. I won't argue with you, because I'm sure you won't change your mind - But I hope you can see that we cannot enforce your beliefs on everyone - It simply is not right - And that there is, indeed, room for interpretation of the Bible.

No it doesn't. The statement that "the Bible is not true" is absolutely irrelevant to the theory of evolution.
When you start denying the truth in the Bible,
...then your head explodes. God it. {BOOOM}
like in claiming that the meaning of "day" might be 400 million years, (no, a day means a day), then you invite the denial of other parts as well.
How can we know what God's sense of time is like? How can we know that our way of reading the Bible is the One True Way (tm) and everyone else is wrong?

No it isn't. God is perfectly capable of creating any system of natural laws he so chooses, including one that relies on evolution for the creation of man over a long period of time. The theory of evolution has been widely disseminated in the Western world, and there are still plenty of Christians.
Besides, I have seen much more evidence of a worldwide flood than evolution.
Have you been looking for evidence of evolution? Would the existance of any number of worldwide floods somehow contradict the theory of evolution?

I'm neither denouncing nor sneering at you - Religion is not something to sneer at. What you say above may very well be true. It is also true that it has nothing to do with offering a counterargument against evolution and everything to do with making people who you term "evolutionists" look bad. Do not judge the whole of science based on the actions of a few unpleasant people - You would not want someone doing the same thing to Christians. Scientists are not, as a whole, out to get you, nor are they out to destroy religion; they are scientists, and most of them are simply out to apply the scientific method.
I have seen mathematical evidence for the argument of a young earth.
Noting that there is a big difference between evidence and evidence that has validity, according to the scientific method - And that is the realm you enter, when talking about a "young earth" theory - I would very much like to hear this evidence, as well as the theory it supports, explicitly stated and subject to critical examination. If it is immediately obvious that it means that the theory of evolution cannot be correct, we can all go home!
I simply choose to believe God.
By all means! I'm glad you do - You're not the only one. This has nothing to do with accepting the theory of evolution, however.

Snicker -- post some, if you dare.
I have seen too much circular logic in evolution.
Document, please.
I have seen outright deception and lies.
Document this one too, or retract it. You'd better have a lot, though, or else I'll post three examples of blatant creationist lies for every one you can find from a scientist. Heck, I probably won't even have to go beyond this thread for examples.
I have seen the evolutionists simply ignore any evidence that didn't fit in the right place.
Such as? You're talking about *valid* evidence, I hope?
I have seen evolutionists denounce and sneer at anyone who places their faith in God rather than men.
No, I doubt that you have. What *I've* seen is people "denounce and sneer" at people who cast the first stone.
I have seen mathematical evidence for the argument of a young earth.
Oooh, my *favorite*! Please, please share it with us, I just love those.
