And what's with this fear of evolution anyway? My parents are Christians, and they accept evolution no problem. Then again, my dad is also an organic chemist, so he's one of those rare Christians that actually understands science.
I am told that is not sufficient.
And I don't have a fear of evolution. I use to be an evolutionist and then I started researching the issue.
I have bolded the word where I think you and many others begin to go off the rails when it comes to evolution. You wouldn't describe yourself as a gravityist, would you? You're not choosing a political party, here. Too many Christians and Muslims see aspects of the world they perceive to be threats to their faith as "isms". Leaving aside those befuddled people who confuse biological evolution with Herbert Spencer-style social Darwinism, evolution isn't an ideology. That so many people think it is says more about their own world views than it does about the theory.
