A big part of the problem is we have fundamentalists (and sometimes atheists) making the claim that "evolution disproves God", when really all that is disproven is a literal interpretation of Genesis. This causes alot of hysterical fear mongering. Most scientists are not on some quixotic crusade to destroy all religion. For the time I have been in science, in fact, no one has even asked me about my religion.
Pretty much my stance. Ham's arguments are absurd and he'd have to know nothing about science to not see that.
Quote:People who disbelieve all the evidence from experiments that evolution occurs/the earth is ridiculously old/whatever based on blind faith aren't worth the time to debate it with anyway. They base ideas on complete ignorance of what is actually happening and would be incredibly hard to convince otherwise.
