I agree with you, esp. on the "aggressive Godlessnes" point. I've been told that I am following "complete heresy" because of my opinions about God/science/evolution. I have to consider the source though.

It's funny to see "complete heresy" thrown out there because I think of "heresy" as a term Catholics like to throw around and Catholics are cool with Darwin. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/com...cle5705331.ece

At least today, long after the theory is completely accepted scientifically.. .
