"By answering them “according to their folly” (“scientifically”, but without buying into their beliefs) and showing them how unwise it is to believe in evolution, Christians can remove stumbling blocks to the faith."

Ahhh, I really don't think this is the answer at all. In fact, I think it's a recipe for disaster. If you want to promote Christianity, do it on the basis Jesus did - love, compassion, help for those in need, outreach, and creating a movement that people want to be a part of. Something that gives them hope and purpose and demonstrates the transformative power of God's grace.

What you said. Exactly what you said.

I could say more, but what you said covers it nicely in a positive way.

You said it well. Example is much better than constantly being yelled at.

Are you certain someone wouldn't just mistake you for a Rotarian? Really, you think Christianity is just "being nice to each other"? Indeed, wouldn't most members of the "Hope and Change" movement say they behave in the way you recommend?

Exactly, that is how you reach unbelievers... but for those already in the Church, as this article is referring to, we need to teach the TRUTH, and the truth is not evolution.
