Why are Christians against evolution?

I do feel, however, that you're missing the point of this thread. I didn't want arguments for/against evolution per se - those would probably go the 'Science' section, or a new thread. Nor am I looking for a particularly long discussion of the topic - I'm not a scientist and would get pretty lost, although I'm sure some of the other guys here would be happy to discuss it with you.

Instead, I'm asking whether people think there is anything about being a Christian (or Muslim, I suppose, there's bound to be some crossover) that requires you to reject evolution (see the OP). If you refer to my last post, you can see why I think the point being made in the video (evolution is unscientific) doesn't respond to that.

If you have anything regarding the OP though, I'd be glad to hear it. It'd be interesting to talk more on the topic in the video elsewhere, although I suspect this forum might not be the best arena for interfaith dialogue!

Thanks

Cleanthes

I'd like to ask you this question:

You say you are a christian but accept evolution. Do you think that evolution is part of " God's plan "? i.e. created by God.
HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
