I know people try to reconcile the two, but the point of the article is that many Darwinists are trying to use evolution to stamp out God altogether.

Darwinists are a tiresome bunch and their strident dogma will ultimately be their doom. Which is why God invented the Darwin Awards. This -- all of this -- did not happen by chance. Life on Earth is not and never was a crap-shoot.

Equally, those who believe in six literal days of creation should give pause to reflect. Travel DownUnder: I can show you things that will cause you to believe that this earth is a very ancient place, and that life on this planet evolved over a long period of time, many millions of years ago. But I believe it evolved in accordance with a Divine Purpose.

We have living dinosaurs here, such as the Tuatara: looks like a lizard, but it ain't! It's provably something much more ancient, with three eyes, not two! Flightless birds, like the Kiwi. Pre-historic bugs, like the Weta.

There is No Way in Texas that all these things happened only six thousand years ago. These things EVOLVED. And they took their sweet time in doing so.

(I am a devout -- but deeply flawed -- Christian, unashamedly so.)

And that is the wrongness of it...What Darwin and the othes who preceded him and followed him describe is a process...deciding the process is something to make declarations of faith on is stepping beyond science into the philosophical/religious field.
