:::::::: I think that the problem in some ways is that most of the debate is between evolutionists and ''Christian'' creationists.  And most of the little bit beyond Christians is with Jews and Muslims, both of which are "related" monotheistic religions.  Barikada is technically correct in that atheists would reject life being created by ''any'' "god", but to my mind the question is how relevant those other "gods" are, given what I've just said about the debate.  That is, I fully accept that atheists would not accept a Hindu creation account (at least if it ''does'' propose a creation, but I have my doubts about that anyway), but how many atheists do you see actually debating this with Hindus (or vice versa)?  It's really a non-issue there.  And the altered wording was a little awkward to make that irrelevant point.  However, I've altered it in a different way that is more encompassing, without the awkwardness.  All happy?  [[User:Philip J.
