: "Three: it's obvious that evolution is more of a belief system than a simple theory.  It's clearly an -ism." It's as much as a belief system as believing the sky is blue can be labled "blueskyism." Creationism was '''ancient''' man's answer to the existence of species (amongst the whole universe) but '''modern''' man has the technology and insight to observe, even influence, genetic mutation. The reasoning that some natural genetic mutation may benefit an individual within a species, causing it to thrive and produce more offspring isn't a great leap in thought. Especially considering how many generations of life there have been over millions of years, evolution is as obvious an answer to modern man as a fictional (yes, i know this will get deleted, but any sane person will agree) being creating the entirity of existence was the obvious answer to ancient man. I'm sure there are minor flaws in detail within Darwinian theory, but remember he made observations that scientists now would find extremely primitive, and his minor flaws aren't an excuse to revert to ancient thinking: ignoring modern academics and relying on people who were little more than tribal witchdoctors who lived thousands of years ago worries me a great deal. Especially as the most powerful country in the world seems to contain the highest portion of creationists. The USA shouldn't be like this. It should be forward thinking. Not backwards.

I just joined to express disagreement with the format of the creationism page.  I don't believe it should have any mentions at all of evolution in it, and here's why: I know Christianity is true and the Christian God is the one true God.  Because of that I neither know nor care about any other reason why Islam, Judaism, Hindu, atheism etc. are wrong.  All I need to know is they're wrong because those religions do not believe Jesus Christ died for my sins when obviously he did.  If I wanted a detailed account of why Islam is wrong, I would check your page on Islam.  Similarly, and as an extension of my faith, I know creationism is right and neither know nor care why evolutionism is wrong other than the simple fact that any contradiction of creationism whatsoever cannot be true.  What I'm here for is the deepening of my understanding of the truth of creationism.  Again, if I cared about why evolution was wrong, I'd read your page about it.  But when God says something is true, that's good enough for me.  Please leave any opposition of evolutionism on its own page where it belongs and devote this page completely to the wondrous life and universe only the Lord could have given us.

We place such complete trust and love in the Lord because we know He's wiser and more gracious than our human minds can even conceive.  If I ever want to know about the most absurd abuses of the logic He gave us, some day, I'll ask Him myself.  Until then, as one of my grandmother's wall ornaments reads, "God said it, I believe it, that settles it".
