RE: Is Evolution a science or a faith?

I've noted in other fora members of the 'woo' community rarely, if ever, criticize each other. Christians who believe in evolution too aren't going to make waves in their churches for their pew mates that don't.
However, both those stripes of Christians in that church might come after the gays, or the pro choicers, or some undocumented immigrants, regardless of some of them being in a state of apostasy on Darwinism.

Heh, OP copy/pasted a passage from a book, got up and left, and got 4 pages of replies. Effective?

"The greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions" - Leonardo da Vinci
"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)

I'm interested what else isn't a science.
My bet is on chemistry. Those chemists are going to be shocked when they find out.

He's like a little boy that likes sticking a stick in the bee hive and then running away like hell.
Let's see if we can answer the little boy's question. Evolution is studied in life science courses at the university level where as creationism is taught in Sunday school. I hope that cleared it up for you.

Humiliation? No, just frustration when creationist morons repeat the same debunked bullshit that has been repeatedly debunked by actual scientists and then act like children and ignore the facts presented to them.
To answer the question of the thread: It's a science. Creationism is a claim, nothing more.
