When someone argues for evolution, they are "attempting to witness" for their evolutionary religion as well.

As long as we remember that evolution as religion belongs to the atheists. For Christians, or members of other faiths, who work in biology, evolutionary biology is a collection of facts and ideas that are used to guide and track research.

Interesting... I think that ill-defined meaning of the word of evolution contributes to the confusion. Natural selection as a selective breeder is an established scientific principle. The effects of mutations are easily observable as well [often destructive or harmful]. However, translating those concepts into historical reconstruction from common descent is faith in the improbable.
