Why Christians Attack Evolution

[Minimalist]

The Catholic Church has the entire truth and does not lie.

Except when it comes to pervert priests.

We accept evolution as plausible as well as the accounts in Genesis.
What is key to the issue is a God created the World and how he did it may be evolution or the Biblical way.

You came all this way to say so little?

Have a Guinness mate.

Hey!, I'm setting here right now drinking my own home made stout, mmmm, better than Guinness, Oh yea.

Not all Christians disbelieve in evolution...usually, that's an opinion of Fundamentalist Christians. They tend to take Genesis more literally, than other Christians. But, then what does that say about the religion as a whole? Christians can't even agree on their own faith book?

Which just speaks to me, that it's all nonsense...just spun several different ways, in various denominations.

The Roman Catholic Church teaches that the basic premise of evolution is true, but then they get tripped up when they believe that God still gave humans a 'soul.' When did that happen exactly in the 'evolutionary process?''

Before Charles Darwin's theory took shape, Christians took Genesis, literally. Hmmm...then, Charles Darwin came along, and years later...the Catholic Church and other denoms were teaching that it's 'ok' to accept Genesis as metaphorical in nature. So, just like that...'god' changed his mind? He sent a cosmic message to all the 'church leaders' that...now, thou shalt believe in evolution? lol Oh please.

It's just too much nonsense for me, anymore.

Science is complex, yet simple. It's beautiful. It doesn't have all the answers, but that doesn't mean it never will. I trust science, because simply put, it doesn't lie. Religions lie.

It can't be both. That is actually the key.

Except about raping children, covering it up, and denying it.

I do not attack it and I am a Christian. Nor do many other brilliant Christians in the academy attack it.

So where does that leave your post?

And your experience is the totality of all christianity, everywhere on earth, all the time?

Honestly Disc, I don't even know why you would think what you just said is anything close to a refutation.

The Catholic Church has the entire truth and does not lie.

Except when it comes to condoms and the HIV virus.

Blanket statement, debunked.

I think some Christians attack evolution because they're idiots who actually think proving evolution wrong somehow proves Christianity. Whereas, if evolution were proven wrong today, they would still have all their work ahead of them. The same goes for Muslims and any other religion the theory contradicts.

Are...You...Serious????

You know why Christians attack your fairy tale.
Your wiley, deceptive mentors took real science (the stuff we do every day: We did THIS and we got THAT.)
Put the cloak (name) of real science on their theory, put a bra with some padding in it, gave it lipstick, more padding, stood it up and called it "Science".
Carl Sagan did the same thing- puts on a long white shop coat, instead of the black ones the other priests wear- and Wha- Laa he gets instant believableness.

David Berlinksi (pretty high level phd type) last I saw, is not a Christian.
An interview with him on youtube is delightful.
He wrote some books spoofing and exposing the the nonsense of the great and mighty Dawkins.
Of course, David doesn't get free publicity like the religionists pushing your stuff get, but guys like him are out there.

professor just embrace your origins and unity with nature and all it's variety. Accept me into your heart and you will feel better trust me.

Isn't it interesting that all you can do is insult the theory, but you can do nothing to rebut it?

Could it be that you can't, because evolution is a confirmed scientific fact that I could literally show you pictures of right now, and you are talking out of your ass?

It is still "just" a theory (evolution) but there is quite a bit of evidence to back it up. Christians' assertions that "somehow God made everything and everybody cuz the Bible says so" is based on nothing.

I'll stick with science.
