There is no necessary conflict between Darwinian science and religious belief.

This is true, which is why alleged Darwinists should stop bashing religion.

"There is no necessary conflict between Darwinian science and religious belief."

As long as I'm willing to accept that the Bible is a pack of lies metaphors, right? Like the creation story. It's a just a metaphor. It represents, uh, that God - no wait - that creation - no, um, er - it teaches us that ... the world was created even though it wasn't.

Hey, I have a solution. Let's switch things around, leaving the Bible alone, and regarding Darwin's writings as metaphorical. No necessary conflict, right? What's that screaming sound?

"And far from being morally degrading, Darwinism supports the idea of a natural moral sense as part of the evolved nature of human beings."

An evolved natural moral sense - that's rich. How do you explain the common thug? Is he acting out "survival of the fittest", or just not as evolved as the rest of us? Maybe he just needs a little more science class?

There are a great many creationists who have only a vague knowledge of Darwin and what he wrote.

By concentrating soley on the Bible and works by people who write about the bible or people who have theological theories about the Bible, they don't read widely on any other subject.
