That would really depend upon to whom I was talking.

What does your question have to do with anything?

There's a stereotype I don't understand. I come from a family of college educated individuals. All master's degree holders and PhD's. ALL believers. Please stop with the foolishness. Yes, you can be educated and not believe evolution nonsense.

Creationism has not been proven.

BTW, evolution goes far beyond Darwinism. DNA wasn't even discovered until the 1950s. Nearly 70 years after Darwin died.

Get a clue.


Has it been proven that the perfectly ordered Universe suddenly emerged from nothing and the reason it did is just because?

By definition, nothing is nothing and nothing comes from nothing.

That something now exists in time and space proves something independent of time and space exists so as to be present to create the time and space for something not independent of time and space to exist in.

Save the Atheist fairy tales and excuses.

There is no such thing as nothing.

It proves no such thing.

What atheist fairy tales? Evolution has nothing to do with belief or non belief in any gods. It is creation that is built on fairy tales.

Ummm...no it doesn't and you continuing to spout such rubbish only underscores the fact you lack even a kindergarten-level grasp of evolutionary theory.

Are you speaking of Muslims? Because they, of course, worship the same god as the Jews and Christians. The God of Abraham.

No. And, of course, it is fallacy to claim the universe is "perfectly ordered." But again, this has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with evolutionary theory.

It also lends absolutely no credence whatsoever to the notion that some invisible supernatural being poofed everything into existence.

No, not really. Not in anything that resembles science. Maybe your relatives have doctorates in literature or theology or something, if they exist at all.

I think it's funny that you want to poison your kids' educations just to show them darned liberals.

The Creationists' comparison of evolution with a "tornado creating a Boeing 747 in a junkyard" story cracks me up every time I hear it.

....And it proves beyond a doubt they really have no clue what evolution is.

Tell me... How does a grown adult in the 21st century seriously believe nonsense like that?
