Line 13:
Line 13: + − "Evolutionism" is not a worldview at all. As far as I can tell it's nothing but a pejorative term created by creationists to imply that people believe in the theory of evolution simply because they already believed there is no god. The truth is that people believe the theory because they're convinced by the evidence. Darwin didn't set out to come up with a theory that wouldn't require divine intervention - he observed nature, and his observations led him to wonder how it got to be the way it is, and he developed the theory to explain it. --[[User:Murray|Murray]] 10:58, 19 March 2007 (EDT)+

:It is impossible to be convinced by the evidence that there is no God, the only option is to be convinced there is. The very definition of God is that He is outside science. Evolutionism is a worldview whether it's correct or incorrect, because it's how certain people view the world. --[[User:Ymmotrojam|Ymmotrojam]] 11:04, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
