Evolution does require defending because it's a basic fact of science. Christianity needs defending because it's the most ridiculous cult ever invented.

Wikipedia - Christian apologetics

Christian apologetics is a branch of Christian theology that attempts to defend Christianity against objections.

A list of the fucking morons who have defended extreme stupidity:

Christian apologetics has taken many forms over the centuries, starting with Paul the Apostle in the early churchand Patristic writers such as Origen, Augustine of Hippo, Justin Martyr and Tertullian, then continuing with writers such as Thomas Aquinas and Anselm of Canterbury during Scholasticism. Blaise Pascal was an active Christian apologist before the Age of Enlightenment, and in the modern period, Christianity was defended through the efforts of many authors such as G. K. Chesterton and C. S. Lewis. In contemporary times Christianity is defended through the work of figures such as Robert Barron, Richard Swinburne, J. P. Moreland, Ravi Zacharias, Rabi Maharaj, Robert Hutchinson, John Lennox, Doug Wilson, Lee Strobel, Francis Collins, Henry M. Morris, Alister McGrath, Alvin Plantinga, Hugh Ross, Frank Turek, Greg Koukl, James White, David Wood, David Bentley Hart, Nabeel Qureshi, and William Lane Craig.

I noticed Francis Collins is on the list of fucktards who defend the magical resurrection of the Magic Jeebus Man, a fantasy that requires throwing out all of biology and reality. And he calls himself a scientist, a scientist who defends magical stupidity.

Virtually all the best scientists these days are atheists, aka normal people. Scientists like Fucktard Collins are extremely rare for obvious reasons. Collins is a stupid fucking asshole who disgraces his profession.
