And evidently they are the only ones so blessed.

Let's see, the evolutionists here are defending Trudeau, bashing Christians, saying that the Bible cannot be taken literally (implying that it is not TRUE) and you folks dare call yourselves anything but atheists? Here is what evolution is, not from me, but from an evolutionist:

Now a third one of Darwin's great contributions was that he replaced theological, or supernatural, science with secular science. Laplace, of course, had already done this some 50 years earlier when he explained the whole world to Napoleon. After his explanation, Napoleon replied, "where is God in your theory?" And Laplace answered, "I don't need that hypothesis." Darwin's explanation that all things have a natural cause made the belief in a creatively superior mind quite unnecessary. He created a secular world, more so than anyone before him. Certainly many forces were verging in that same direction, but Darwin's work was the crashing arrival of this idea and from that point on, the secular viewpoint of the world became virtually universal.

Beep. Wrong. No one is defending Trudeau. We do agree with him that creationists are ignorant, though.

... bashing Christians,...

Nope. Only bashing you, and you cannot be considered Christian because of your track record of lies and deceit.

... saying that the Bible cannot be taken literally (implying that it is not TRUE)...

Only some parts cannot be taken literally and must be taken allegorically. Genesis is an example. Otherwise the Bible is in conflict with the evidence. And, having to take parts of the Bible allegorically does not imply that it is not true. Allegories can be "true" if used correctly. The parables of Jesus are an example. You see, this is why most of us consider you to be, at best, a child. You seem to lack the reasoning skills possessed by most adults.

... and you folks dare call yourselves anything but atheists?

So, anyone who disagrees with the great Little Boy Blue on interpretation of Scripture must be an atheist. You are so full of yourself you squeak when you walk.
