Originally posted by RJHindsNo, they do not necessarily deny God's role in creation, either. For example, I believe God created the universe, but that modern cosmological theory, aka the 'Big Bang', was how he did it. Evolution, similarly, was his tool to create all the life on our planet. So, neither evolution nor the Big Bang deny God.
Well, evolutionists deny that creation was an act of God. Is that better?

"Well, evolutionists deny that creation was an act of God. "
You really meant to say;
"Well, atheist evolutionists deny that creation was an act of God. "
Which doesn't add much to the debate.

If it were an uncharacteristic slip-up, I would agree.
I'm a much bigger fan of RBHILL. He has a similar inane spiritual outlook, but he is far more entertaining to read.
