Ahhh yes, it's time to start that ever so burning discussion of evolution. Well, I'm not even sure if this belongs here, but I was just wondering if you all believe in evolution. And if you do, do you feel it enfringes on your religion? This is more of a survey kind of thing. See, we're talking about all of the proof of evolution (really, it's fact, not theory anymore) in my advanced placement biology course. The thing is, whenever we talk about it as fact, an individual in my class gets quite upset and says she flat out doesn't believe in any of it. But with all of the scientific evidence, carbon dating of skulls that show the progression of hominids to humans for example, how can you not believe it? Is it more of a pushing the facts aside to for lack of a better term stay religious? Or is it really a "I don't believe in all of this because I believe God created it all as it is now millions of billions of years ago."? Sorry if this is sort of rant-induced, but it makes it hard to have scientific conversations because she just doesn't believe in so much of it (big bang, evolution, etc). Does science enfringe on religion? (oohh, that's a better question) So there it is.
