NEW YORK TIMES Darwin, Ahead of His Time, Is Still Influential
Wall Street Journal: Man vs. God (Richard Dawkins)
Why don't Muslims eat pork chops? Also, why do Muslims blow themselves up?
However, on religious issues there can be little or no compromise. There is no position on which people are so immovable as their religious beliefs. There is no more powerful ally one can claim in a debate than Jesus Christ, or God, or Allah, or whatever one calls this supreme being. But like any powerful weapon, the use of God’s name on one’s behalf should be used sparingly. The religious factions that are growing throughout our land are not using their religious clout with wisdom. They are trying to force government leaders into following their position 100 percent. If you disagree with these religious groups on a particular moral issue, they complain, they threaten you with a loss of money or votes or both. I’m frankly sick and tired of the political preachers across this country telling me as a citizen that if I want to be a moral person, I must believe in “A,” “B,” “C,” and “D.” Just who do they think they are? And from where do they presume to claim the right to dictate their moral beliefs to me? And I am even more angry as a legislator who must endure the threats of every religious group who thinks it has some God-granted right to control my vote on every roll call in the Senate. I am warning them today: I will fight them every step of the way if they try to dictate their moral convictions to all Americans in the name of “conservatism”.
– Senator Barry Goldwater
“Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.” ― Barry M. Goldwater
At Yahoo I wrote an answer about magical creationism: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20150620185515AAJZwra&sort=N
The biggest threats to magical creationism:
It's the most ridiculous, most childish, and most moronic religious fantasy ever invented.
The only scientific explanation for the diversity of life is evolution by natural selection which has 150 years of scientific discoveries supporting it including thousands of evidences from DNA sequencing which are so powerful Darwin could never have imagined it.
The only people who want to throw out science and replace it with magic are god-soaked cowardly uneducated morons, while evolution is accepted by every competent biologist in the world.
Evolution is the foundation of biology. Magical creationism is the foundation of bullsh!t religions.

"Natural science cannot dogmatically rule out the possibility that there are purposeful designs in creation."
The evidence has repeatedly shown that what you call "purposeful designs" also known as "god waved its magic wand" or who knows what you mean, was not necessary because evolution is a completely natural process, and the existence of human apes was not inevitable. Any number of things could have prevented our development, including what if the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs crashed into Jupiter instead. Believe whatever superstitious nonsense you want, but biology does not need your magic man.
And that magical soul thing. You got to be joking. There's no evidence for it and it's a ridiculous fantasy, probably invented to justify the equally ridiculous magical heaven fantasy.

So whats your proof that nothing happens when we die?
Religious fantasies are so insane, childish, and ridiculous, they can be ignored. It’s not necessary to disprove bullshit.
In any case if a person makes a claim about something moronic, for example if I said pink elephants orbit an asteroid in another galaxy, it would be my responsibility to provide evidence for it. Nobody has to disprove something that is just another person’s fantasy.
A magical 2nd life for dead human apes is equally moronic. And the fact that millions of cowards believe in it is not evidence for anything except the stupidity of the cowards.
If the magical creationism fantasy is true why is the giraffe's laryngeal nerve 15 feet longer than necessary?
