Some could be.
How do you feel about that? Do you justify it as being in the service of a higher good? I personally would have some regret about that.
Have you considered keeping God but upgrading your theology? I know people who work in real science, are ardent believers and have no problem with evolution. I think asking kids to deny evolution is just a step or two removed from becoming the next technology avoiding quaker-esque commune. You shouldn't have to choose between embracing the modern world and being a Christian. I'm not asking you to do it for me; it doesn't affect me one way or the other. Just seems like a more comfortable option to me.
