There are many views on evolution yes, but if you're tackling anything other than a genuine scientific theory, you're just dealing with some crackpot. So you can kick the crap out of their stupid ideas for sure, but you haven't addressed the actual theory of evolution. There is a way of determining what is proper science and what isn't, and it's not a matter of opinion.
Christianity on the other hands makes no testable claims at all, so there's no possible way to determine who is correctly interpreting the bible and who is not. It's just Christians all calling each other Not True Christians. Christians can argue with each other after some basic assumptions about the general truth of the text. But when talking to an atheist and that assumption is no longer granted, you're left with a story book, and us wondering why you care about anything it has to say.
