People don't like to take any middle ground in the issue. Apparently, it is impossible to believe in evolution and be a good christian, muslim, jew, or what have you. I am pretty sure there are some religions that are more open minded about the issue out there though. I don't agree on being extreme either way because evolution is just a theory and religion is...well... religion. Can't base facts on religion nor can you base religion on facts; just doesn't work too well.
I really don't think believing in evolution would separate you from any divine power though, but if thats what they want people to think, well good for them. I really don't give a damn because they got rid of Win Ben Stein's Money! :cursing:
