The reasoning involved in turning evolution into a religion is like this. The letter stated "Evolution has no proof, so it's a faith, which makes it a religion!". I really love this quote. It is the greatest thing I have ever heard a creationist say. If I got this right, there is no proof of God. The creationists drew a target around their foot and opened both barrels. Boy, that's just too good. Now the real problem with the statement is that Evolution is a theory, correct that it is not proven, but the difference between theory and faith is that a theory has a reason to be believed. It's the first step to finding out the truth on a subject. Faith, is the belief of something that has no signs of existing. So to say a scientific theory is a religious belief is just a good way to make yourself look really dumb. |
