and now you're evolution denying Christian? It seems you were an atheist just like Kirk Cameron claims he was an atheist. If you were truly an atheist, like any one of us, then you would understand evolution and would not go to a state where you suddenly not understand it and embarrass yourself à la Kirk Cameron and his banana proves Jesus fiasco.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
