If you believe in theistically guided evolution, you're not my enemy. People who want to teach my children that dinosaurs and humans lived together because they think it's a problem for their faith if it's true are my enemy when it comes to science education.

One poster here said it pre existed theism, and a mind devoid of awareness of god, is thus atheist. I agree with that, primordial man was atheist, and I cannot see then theism arising out of a world of atheism.
Why would it?
Why wouldn't it? Ideas catch on, especially ones that benefit the people who want to be in charge.

Seriously?
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
