And for this post, please see my tagline.

In science, you get Nowhere by labeling your ignorance as god.

In religion, if you really want to do that, great, just don't expect scientists to do it.

The Modern Period
Even today, many scientists reject particles-to-people evolution (i.e. everything made itself).
Dr Russell Humphreys, a nuclear physicist working with Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has over 20 articles in physics journals, while Dr John Baumgardner's catastrophic plate tectonics theory was published in Nature.

Dr Raymond V. Damadian, invented the method known today as magnetic resonance imaging or MRI

Dr Edward Boudreaux of the University of New Orleans has published 26 articles and four books in physical chemistry.

Dr Maciej Giertych, head of the Department of Genetics at the Institute of Dendrology of the Polish Academy of Sciences, has published 90 papers in scientific journals.

So an oft-repeated charge that no real scientist rejects evolution is completely without foundation.
