The real promoters of ignorance are those who put their trust in the med school dropout, turned clergy dropout, turned amateur naturalist, who then presumed to write a long argument on behalf of his natural selection god with nothing more than minor variations within species to go on. And all the unfulfilled atheists fell for it hook, line and sinker. Now that’s ignorance!

—No, ignorance is thinking that modern fields of science are any more dependent on Darwin than modern astronomy is dependent on Copernicus.
Ignorance is also not realizing that Darwin based his arguments on many fields of science, including taxonomy, biogeography, comparative anatomy, paleontology, embryology, etc.

Yet another strawman. At least you didn’t mention Darwin by name.

How can I trust a god who so screwed up his initial attempts at creation that he must continuously tinker with his project? A competent god would have got it done in the first Planck Second and let his laws of physics take it from there.
