Why is Evolution so criticised?

[Tiberius]

The latest version of MyBB came with a spam detector plugin. Evidently it didn't work very well...

Isn't that what mods are for?

It was a mod included by default since it was developed by one of the dev team. Hence why it was easy to turn off

A machine can never replace a computer. That's why I can out drink my windows XP.

Evolution is criticised by the faithful because it goes against their mindset as dictated by their religion.

You can be sure that if it was written that "God created a spark of life and then set forth the force of nature" instead that they would be all for it.

Did you mean to say a machine can never replace a human?...because a computer is a machine. Oh, and my Linux machine could probably out drink your XP machine as well

Well, humans are terrible at numbers and that's something computers are amazingly good at. But other than numbers and exact measurements they're pretty useless.

I know we've gone off topic here but computers only tell you when something is wrong!! I hate that! can't they be nice and every once in a while pop up with a message like 'You're great at spelling' or 'You're a pro at this programme.' I'd buy into that!

Funnily enough on Linux you could script a program to do that in a few seconds

Suddenly a porn pop up covers your screen and all you hear is:

"Click it, you know you want to"

To put it simple I'd say that Evolution is criticsised because it's not In the Bible or Koran and it's not part of faith.

I think it is criticised because religious people like to feel special and above other animals 'Man was destined for glory' or something along those lines was said by a christian member on the previous site. I guess some people don't like to be on the same page as apes...

I am one who doesn't like to be mind conditioned by religious societies who have succesfully brain washed even atheists to believe their thoughts and fundamentals, so I've say this

It is an insult to nature to suggest that we were made by a god 6,000 years ago and we haven't evolved our brains in that time.

It is much more of a complement to humans to realise we have evolved to the intelligence level we're at now from 6 million years ago when we separated from chimps.
