There is no inherent opposition between evolution and religious faith. The fact is that there had to be a prime mover to create the universe, to produce the Big Bang and set the processes that lead to intelligent life in motion. If not then we are left with an infinite regress which is illogical and doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
I agree with you on some aspects, however I don't believe that the theory of Evolution should be taught in schools either, seeing as it is also only a theory.
( Evolution with a capitalized letter, referring to the idea that human beings evolved from apes or sea creatures. This is different than evolution without capitalization, which is merely that living things change and adapt to thei environment. )
Perhaps instead they should both be taught, and neither presented as scientific fact. =3
I never thought corpreal science infringed upon theology or church doctrine. However, there are ethics to how a scientific experiment is carried out. The thing is, this supposed war between religion and science is a product of the protestant schism and Luther's view on human error and is really only a huge issue in America. I don't think that Creationist Theory should be taught in a science class; for that theory is a philosophical concept rather than physical scientific concept.
Great Thanks short concise and Elegant
