It requires no special understanding to accept. You do not have to a/s/k according to a vague passage in a book for answers that can never be verified, nor risk the possibility that you a/s/k exactly as proscribed and come away with nothing.
Drich personally informed me that my Christian experience failed because I didn't a/s/k properly. Evolution makes no such demand. The evidence is not only available to those who assume ahead of time that the concept is certain truth. It is available, in full and without restriction, for even those who are most stringently in denial of reality.
We might very well 'jump on' someone who denied science, but the difference between science and Christianity is that one is rooted in physical evidence, and one is rooted in tales entirely indistinguishable from fiction. Your beliefs are beneath anything revealed by physical evidence.
I do not accept evolution period, I believe it's made up science without anything to prove it.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
