But please be aware that there are people in the world who demand a bit more reasoning with book learnin'.As a degreed Electrical Engineer, I've had plenty of 'book learnin'' as you so cleverly put it.
I guess the differnce is a merciful God gave me a brain, rescued me, , and privided a wonderfull book called the "Holy Bible" in which to evaluate what I read from the "evolution Science" texts.
In case you haven't heard, science books, (sometimes written by ordinary men with anti-God bias), often contain errors. The examples of these "errors" are to numerous to list.
Sure, a Christian excepts things by faith, for without faith it is impossible to please God. But, it sure is nice that my faith can be backed up by what I see on a daily basis.

Science texts present the best known facts at the time of printing. Science is such that it can be corrected through science. That's the way it works, as surely you know. No scientist purports to have all the answers. They are constantly improving upon prevailing thought. That's their job, that's what peer-review is, and again... that's science. 2 clowns skip the peer review process, trumpet their cold fusion nonsense, make the cover of Time, then get lambasted when is was shown that there were no repeatable tests.
The bible says woman was created from Adam's rib by divine intervention, they had 2 sons, a snake talked to them, they ate some fruit (apples don't grow indigenously in the Holy Land), and living things die because of this. (?) Uah? They went on to have 2 sons, 25% of earth's population committed a capital felony (doesn't say much for god's perfect creation... oh wait, Adam ate that fruit the talking snake tempted him with, sorry), and somehow more people appeared on earth (only to be annihilated some years later in a massive flood, decimating the gene pool, but Noah was proactive enough to collect all the animals, including the dinosaurs of course, thank goodness).
And you call yourself an engineer?
