It's more than verbal at times. Some people have actively tried to force me to abandon God and take up evolution. It's absurd. It's clearly none of their buisness.

You don't know if there's a god or not.

That's true. God is scientifically improbable, but so are many things. How long ago were heart transplants impossible? I'm not saying God is scientifically possible because he can't be disproven, simply that no one has any authority to dismiss anything from reality completly.

No, not yet (or at least any notable incidents like the Inquizition). Atheists were almost non-existent until fairly recently, though. Give them 500 more years and then we'll talk.

Interesting. I hadn't considered the age differences between the movements.

Evolution (everyone's counter to creationism) is just on the cusp of believable. Until there is proof, it doesn't matter.

What does evolution have to do with eating bread and drinking wine to celebrate the life of the Son of God? Can evolution disprove that Herod killed every first born to try and stop Jesus from taking his power?
