| Theists are wrong and annoying. They seem immune to reason so insults and coercion are your best bet. | 1 | 2.70% | |

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

What shall we do with theists?
Global genocide? Nah, I couldn't condone that. Learn to live with the decent ones, educate the ignorant one (creationists, etc.), and closely monitor the extremists.
Dying to live, living to die.
