Darwin and God go together like day and night. You can’t believe both God and Darwin, you are either a believer or an atheist.

Who proved that faith and reason are mutually exclusive? The Vatican has no problem with evolution.

If you can not believe in evolution that you can not believe that your God is omnipotent. My God is omnipotent. He created humans by means of evolution. My God is more powerful than your God.

Totally, 100% wrong

What you cannot do is be a wacked out American taliban fundamentalist AND beleive in Darwin.

That I will agree with.

Since the 4th century, based on the teachings of St.Augustine, the church has known that they cannot claim that which contradicts the clear observance of nature.

If they do, they will lose all legitimacy when they teach that which cannot be observed i.e. about the mysteries of God.

Did they skip that part in your bible class?

Mutually exclusive? Amazing what our language can produce, including nonsense.

Where do you come off with such a bizarre statement?

If you have no trouble believing God designed and created a complicated weather system, or a complicated cosmic system of planets, stars and galaxies - why is it impossible to believe that God designed and created a complicated system of evolution?

It certainly isn't impossible for me to believe. I am a very firm believer in God and I am a very firm believer in evolution.

Just because YOU can't believe that God created evolution, doesn't mean the rest of us have any problem with it.
