You know why Christians attack your fairy tale.
Your wiley, deceptive mentors took real science (the stuff we do every day: We did THIS and we got THAT.)
Put the cloak (name) of real science on their theory, put a bra with some padding in it, gave it lipstick, more padding, stood it up and called it "Science".
Carl Sagan did the same thing- puts on a long white shop coat, instead of the black ones the other priests wear- and Wha- Laa he gets instant believableness.
David Berlinksi (pretty high level phd type) last I saw, is not a Christian.
An interview with him on youtube is delightful.
He wrote some books spoofing and exposing the the nonsense of the great and mighty Dawkins.
Of course, David doesn't get free publicity like the religionists pushing your stuff get, but guys like him are out there.
David Berlinski is a philosopher, not a biologist. And he works for the freakin' Discovery Institute (one of the most intellectually dishonest organizations ever to sully this planet) because he believes in intelligent design.
He is incapable of falsifying evolution. His arguments are all arguments from ignorance, arguments from incredulity, and misunderstanding of the evidence and mechanisms of evolution.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
