The war started in our schools when the secular humanists took over and are winning today.
And was utterly lost when religious leaders didn't accept the obvious and compliment the school's teaching of evolution with creation as a compatible philosphy. Time is relative, a day for God can be millions upon millions upon millions of our world, this is proven fact. Fossil record and experimentation support evolution and yet evolution is not imcompatible with creationism, indeed Genesis is a remarkable telling of the big bang and the evolution which followed.
The fundamentalist creationists are no better than the people who pursecuted Galeleo despite the evidience because they wanted to bury their hand in the sand and pretend the universe rotated around the Earth all the while ignoring the sheer immensity and power of God's handiwork.
The universe is so vast, so incredible from the impossibly small to the incomprehensably large that it's intimidating to say the least to try and take it all in, but to deny the greater glory of creation that evolution reveals is to diminish not only God's great work but it is a diminishment of ourselves as well.
Fossils support evolution??? Hardly ---- anything but and so does DNA support Creation. I recommend you go back to the Bible again and read Creation in Genesis. Animals and man were created according to their "own kind." Also a day was a day and created as such, as we know it this day.
I don't wish to be drawn into an argument on this subject, but I couldn't leave it as was.
