Quick and clean. I'm sure, you have your reputable sources for both claims at hand. So, no time wasted.
It's the atheist who say they learn and then know better than to question evolution, the ball is in your court to prove your not losing scientist to God. DNA has been the real killer for you guys.

Google "project Steve'.
There are currently 1400 scientists just with the name "Steve" that agree with the following statement:
"Evolution is a vital, well-supported, unifying principle of the biological sciences, and the scientific evidence is overwhelmingly in favor of the idea that all living things share a common ancestry. Although there are legitimate debates about the patterns and processes of evolution, there is no serious scientific doubt that evolution occurred or that natural selection is a major mechanism in its occurrence. It is scientifically inappropriate and pedagogically irresponsible for creationist pseudoscience, including but not limited to "intelligent design," to be introduced into the science curricula of our nation's public schools."
Scientists with the name "Steve" only account for 1% of all scientists.
The creationist list, Dissent from Darwin, only has 500 scientists total, all names included. And many of these are in fields that have nothing to do with the biological sciences. Seriously, the creationist list includes 36 computer scientists and 117 physicists! Why would you ask computer scientists or physicists about biology?
The Project Steve list only includes biological scientists.
So no, there is no "loss of scientists to Gawd".
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
