I don't go for religion either but what I have noticed is that people who make science their religion are often just as rigid and closed minded as any religious zealot

Maybe evolution isn't the reason why, but how. Your hatred doesn't bother me. I have chosen a path to believe, and it is unique to me. I do not hate you, or think your stupid. Although I think so much anger over something you will never be able to change is a little silly.

even when i was a little girl going to church - catholic- it seemed wrong to learn evolution at school 5 days a week and creation on sundays. when i was 8 years old i knew they were wrong. i stopped going to church as soon as i could. i still believe in god, just not one that hates gays, divorces, abortion and premarital sex. ridiculous!!

Religion, Science, Philosophy, you will find they are branches from the same tree.. All of them are a search for truth, and all three have their place. For instance, science has stated that matter cannot be created nor destroyed.If by all accounts this is true, then were did matter come from? See, questions like this requires all three to answer. Science can answer some things, religion others, and philosophy binds the two together.Think about it.

2^ Well said. it's not important WHAT you have faith in as long as you Have faith. Organized religion can destroy who you are but lack of faith or hope won't do you any better. It's a delicate balance that most cannot adapt to.

^8 "Having Faith" in something that is not real, causes young people to fight and give up their lives for a flag, or a notion. "Faith" causes suicide bombers to die for a cause. "Faith" means you never have to find the real answer because you already "know It"

The Earth is 4.6 billion years old, and the Evolution of all species took millions of years for every new species. People talk as if a monkey swung on trees 25th April 1,000,001 BC and had a human son on 28th April 1,000,001BC. Think before you speak - it will be a new experience for you.

Evolution does NOT teach that humans came from apes, but that we both came from a common ancestor. The difference between science and religion is that science has tons of measurable evidence, and religion has none at all.

Just going to say....the pope had nothing to do with writing the bible. The bible was created over a span of 4000 years. I'm not commenting to defend my religious beliefs, but I will say that technically....scientific beliefs and religious beliefs many times are connect in some way. You shouldn't hate someone because they don't believe the same way you do....that just makes you an ugly human being in general. We can all have different beliefs but not hate one another!

The Bible was written by anonymous people 50-100 years after the disciples lived and died.. They relied on word of mouth stories of what Jesus said or did, and what the disciples said or did.Then in about 300-400 ad Constantine of Constantinople decreed, that all the different versions of the gospels would be eliminated, and only the "official" one he chose would be followed on pain of death. So any innocnet Christian with their own "Faith" in Jesus and God that did not match Constantines, was put to death as a heretic. Very Christian, very democratic, very loving, (lol). More like Satan doing the most foul, evil deeds in the name of love. Go ahead, have faith in the holy word of God's book, but at least acknowledge that it has evolved over the deaths of millions in the most cruel, and barbaric ways known to man.

^3 up - you're deeply confused about the canonization process. Constantine never "chose" anything in the Bible. He simply called and paid for the Council of Nicaea. The Council did NOT decide what went into the Bible. It decided certain Christological and soteriological issues. The makeup of the canon was never officially decreed, but just evolved out of common usage.

^7 Some Gospels were excluded because they did not fit in with the church at the time.(Gospel of Thomas, and Gospel of Mary Magdalene at the very least. And that is not the DaVinci code, the gospel is real, even though the book is fiction). So that makes things "chosen", and after that, he DID start killing heretics who did not get with HIS program.

Creationist who love God don't hate you, as you hate them. That's the difference, WE love and pray for you, and you hate us. Truth is, science can't prove anything at all, it's just theories, so you have just as much "faith" as creationists. I think it takes more faith to believe that we were just randomly created than it does to believe in a Creator. Especially since things ARE NOT BEING RANDOMLY CREATED right now. Show me one thing that just "popped" into existence. Just one. MAN created all we know in the physical world, so you really think the Universe just happened? Wow. And you think I'm stupid.

^3 You are leaving yourself wide open buddy boy. You are not hated by atheists, its more like pitied. Darwin's "theory" of Evolution is well and truly proved now, and believed. 40% of Americans do not believe, but 85% of the rest of the world do. Nothing "just popped into existence" you numnut! Evolution teaches us that millions of years of minor changes created all the living species of plants, animals, birds. And all started with a one cell amoeba.Read something on the subject, even if its Wikipedia, and get a grip on reality. Love and kisses, cos you are one of Darwin's creatures too. You are just not quite cooked yet!

When referring to a scientific theory (i.e. "theory of evolution or theory of gravity"), it refers to HOW it happens, not whether or not it did. This is a common mistake. People assume the common definition of "theory" is being used, there for "it must be a guess", not fact. Sorry, WRONG! The reason we "hate" creationists is because they warp actual facts to "create" this illusion for themselves (and their unwitting children). Science is consistently progressing and disproving ridiculous religious dogma and religion is left floundering and grasping at anything it can to "prove" its self. Abra-Cadabra!... Creationists! Ta-Daa!

^Well said. Science also corrects itself when new discoveries are proved. Whereas the bible, and the bible story (both old and new testaments) are stuck forever in the backward environment in which they were written. Back when the earth was flat, and the centre of the universe. When thunder, lightning, and eclipses were signs of an angry God. (or maybe Satin)

I am astounded at how few of the people who commented on this, christian or athiest, can spell common words or use a spell check program in their browser. Also, I really hate when athiests want to whine about how horrible "religion" and "religious" people are when they're only really referring to the judeo-christian religions. Few wars have been fought over most pagan and eastern religions, and most of them support the learnings of science, either because they make us wiser people and help humanity as a whole, or because they help us to learn more about the world around us, which is considered a sacred gift. There are stupid people in any religion, and I've also met jerky, close minded athiests. It's like saying all people who enjoy television are stupid because some people do stupid things to get on television. It's more complicated than that.

Second post down from the top: so true! The thing is, evolution takes just as much faith to believe in as creation because there is no possible way to prove either. It all comes down to what you put your faith in. Period.
