"Why are some theists very dishonest about science? Where does this idea that if the science is true then there absolutely cannot be a god? Evolution is real, it's testable, measurable, observable and very much a part of every living thing on this planet. So what. It does not disprove or prove god in anyway."
You're right about everything you wrote. However science, especially evolutionary biology, has repeatedly removed hiding places for the god of the gaps. A god fairy who never had anything to do is a fairy that doesn't exist.
My point is Darwin killed the moronic god fantasy. If the fairy's magical powers were not necessary for something as complex as the development of new species, then it's ridiculous to pretend it was necessary for anything else.

"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
