I don't much care for suck-ups.

This pro-science person thinks sucking up is a good idea. I prefer honesty.

"The assault is based on a big lie, which is that evolution denies divine creation. It does no such thing. It is silent on the issue."

Actually this is the one thing the science deniers get right. Of course natural processes are "silent on the issue". Natural processes don't talk. However it should be obvious to everyone, both religious and sane, the facts of evolutionary biology leaves the magic god fairy with virtually nothing to do unless superstitious people want to hide their god-of-the-gaps somewhere else.

It's pointless to deny the religious implications of evolution. Being dishonest is not going to fool anyone.

To the cowardly Christians who worry about the religious implications of science I say "That's your problem moron."
