The Free Thinker – E.A.C. asked:


I accept Evolution as the scientific theory on the origins of species. If there was evidence to suggests otherwise and a new theory was established, I would accept that as well. I’m open to Intelligent Design, but this movie is marketed as the flagship of modern Intelligent Design and it’s filled with lies, quote-mining and tinfoil-hat conspiracy theories.

How am I to even consider Creationism as a valid hypothesis, when such propaganda is their message?
Whoops. I meant Intelligent Design at the end as well….
OM NOM NOMĀ® Iz ded: Are you an ID-advocate? You just quote-mined me.
This statement is from the National Academy of Sciences:

Newspaper and television stories sometimes make it seem as though evolution and religion are incompatible, but that is not true. Many scientists and theologians have written about how one can accept both faith and the validity of biological evolution. Many past and current scientists who have made major contributions to our understanding of the world have been devoutly religious. At the same time, many religious people accept the reality of evolution, and many religious denominations have issued emphatic statements reflecting this acceptance.
