Is it time all religions accept evolution?

No.
Then they might avail themselves of medicines developed from a modern understanding of life, DNA, resistance, etc. and live longer and continue to annoy us with their fucking religion. Almost all religions have tales of faith healing all ills and wounds, they should just sit around and believe away all their problems. The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
Facts aren't a matter of choice: you either accept them or become irrelevant. For a good century, large swathes of religion have opted for the latter, and I'm hardly going to give them a pat on the back for being reasonable now.

Reality is what reality is, whether it makes you happy or not is irrelevant. Religion has pretended that it got to call the shots and force people who had the facts, if those facts disagreed with church doctrine, to recant those facts, as though that changed reality. Today, we know that reality is what reality is and what people believe about reality has no bearing on reality itself. It's time the religious grew the hell up and figured that out.
There is nothing demonstrably true that religion can provide mankind that cannot be achieved as well or better through secular means.

Evolution doesn't care if you accept it. It keeps happening. You just look like an idiot

Mr. Religion: Do you expect me to talk the talk concerning evolution?
Sciencefinger: No, Mr. Religion, I expect you to die! Cue laser cannon of enlightenment

Will be interesting to see what happens, could be a big change a comin'. GC
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.
What evidence is that?

Of course it bloody well is. And if they don't, fuck 'em, the very process that they reject - evolution - will ensure they die off within a few generations.
Much like what is already happening. ![[Image: rySLj1k.png]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i.imgur.com%2FrySLj1k.png) If you have any serious concerns, are being harassed, or just need someone to talk to, feel free to contact me via PM  (August 8, 2015 at 12:08 am)Esquilax Wrote: Facts aren't a matter of choice: you either accept them or become irrelevant. This. There is still plenty of room for us to talk about the possible existence of God but evolution, a 4.5 billion year old Earth and 13.7 billion year old universe are hard fact. Denying them puts one in the same category as a flat-earther. One forfeits all right to be taken seriously by going there.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
