Why would this Christian Liberal bash himself or other Christians, your logic is flawed at best and dishonest at worst.

Really? I have no problem believing that God can and did know what he was creating through evolution, why do You underestimate His abilities? No one is worshiping Darwin, the statement is pure propaganda, which, by the way, equates to a Lie, which, sir, is another Sin. Clue: all Earth sciences back up Evolution through their own facts and the scientists in those fileds have nothing to gain, another failure on your part, but congrates that is a new conspiracy theory I had not heard it up until now. I would sugest rethinking some of your viewpoints, in particular the one where you somehow got the idea that everything in the Old Testament should be take literally, it is the lesson that is trying to be taught that matters, not the story itself.

I can't believe in 2012 we are still having this discussion. Our public school system is a massive failure if there are so many people out there who don't believe in evolution.

Not so - and this is where the evolutionists fail miserably - they make a conjecture that says that because we can observe genetic variation and adaptation within a managable timeframe - then the same process over a long period of time resulted in speciation. Yet this is impossible to observe - which makes ToE a pseudoscience - it is based on extrapolation rather then testable hypothesis and empirical data.

Actually the school system could be considered a success - it has produced critical thinkers who question the validity of the theory of evolution instead of just putting out students who believed what they were taught and never considered that what they were indoctrinated with might be wrong.

Because of the propensity that many christians have - especially on C-D - to try to tell everyone else how they should lead their lives.

The fossil record doesn't support ToE - where are the transitional species?
