This is a stupid attempt to stir up a tempest in a teapot. Neither Bush nor evolution have anything to do with the resurrection of Christ. Plenty of Christians, if not the majority, believe that it is possible or even quite likely that evolution was the very mechanism that God used for creation, and that the Genesis account is a beautiful allegory. Just because you find it impossible to believe in the Bible unless every single word is literally true doesn't mean that every Christian shares your myopia.

Your biblical erudition leaves much to be desired.

I'm not sure how you could judge my "biblical erudation" from a post that mentions one book of the Bible in passing.

It is not possible to wholly believe the Bible, literally, and also believe in evolution.

I believe one of the main things that makes a Christian a "Christian" is the belief in the resurrection, and all that that implies. At our church there are lots of different viewpoints on evolution, Noah's Ark, etc. (not to mention gays, abortion, etc...), but the fundamental belief is that Jesus is Lord and He has risen. By the way, as an earth scientist who was taught "evolution", I figure the resurrection is no less of a miracle than creation .. and I can believe in both.
