Compare the amount of interlocking data from every applicable scientific field including geology, physics, and even molecular biology, all having observational experiments done, that test and prove the hypotheses of evolution occurring, with the DISCREDITED FAIRY TALE - a big invisible monster that nobody has ever seen or heard did it.
It is frightening that mass delusions of supernatural beings still exist today. It is the same thing as saying that my invisible fire breathing dragon is more powerful than your multi-headed fire spewing sea monster. So, come around to my way of thinking or I will commit atrocities for it.
Everything from the murderous blood stained Sky Daddy who drowned virtually all humanity and other life, sentenced everyone to leave Utopia after Eve (persuaded by a talking snake) ate a magical apple, had Jonah take a ride in the belly of a whale, ruined the life of Job, told Abraham to murder his own kid, killed all the first born of Egypt, had his chosen people commit genocide on the original inhabitants of Palestine, to letting his own son be nailed to some wood so mankind could party with a ghost - is a FAIRY TALE that humanity needs to reject if we are to see many more generations.
By the way if you are dumb enough to believe that this fable is real; in the Bible, the murder count is God/millions - Devil/zero. Whom would you rather spend time with, a vengeful monster or a “fallen” angel who thought he had a better way? I am NOT promoting the Devil, just illustrating the craziness in this stupidity.
Hopefully if you were previously deluded, after reading this you will see how foolish you have been. Society needs to accelerate its retreat from worshiping outlandishly absurd fictional psychopathic beings.
There is no middle ground.

The Discovery Institute has been trying for as long as it exists to paint itself as either a secular organization or a multi-faith organization. Ditto with intelligent design: it is not promoted as a religious solution, it's promoted as science. The organization is, to quote themselves, a "510(c)(3) non-profit, non-partisan, educational and research organization".
But this faith + evolution website looks centred on Christian thinking, as opposed to considering how an evolutionary worldview affects the multitude of religions that exist in the real world. I mean evolution affects Buddhist faith too. And Muslims, heck, there's a billion of them but this website never mentions Darwin and the Quran! Why doesn't this website discuss their thoughts...UNLESS the Discovery Institute (shock!) only cares about Christians. !!!
My question:
If I ever hear anyone say that the Discovery Institute or the intelligent design movement are not based on Christianity or promoted by people who are predominantly Christian, can I throw them this link? Or are they too far down the ignorance hole to be saved?

A few of them might be genuinely misinformed, so the link might help.

Deism is not very emotionally satisfying. If it was, this debate would have been over 500 years ago.

And just so everyone's clear, religion and science aren't mutually exclusive - if you're serious about both, they actually compliment each other. And frankly, evolution being taught isn't the big problem - Christians acknowledge that it's possible evolution played a part in the biological process at some point or that it's even ongoing, but the key is the thought that a Creator got the ball rolling. Whoever can't accept that or wants to think that it's just impossible, is being closed-minded and ignorant.

Science, for me, is about what I know about the Universe.
Faith is about how I feel about what I know about the Universe.
