That stoked my fire in the debate. I'm personally of the mind that it is possible for creationism and evolution to follow intertwining paths. Yes, the Bible says the world was created in 7 days. But time is a constraint of man. Who is to say that a day for God is constrained to an earthly day? And why is it not possible that God worked through His own laws of the universe to create what we have here on Earth today? So up until recently, I've been a bit opposed to the Darwinists mostly because of their stubborn refusal to allow the possibility that Darwinism and creationism are one and the same.
Until recently. Unfortunately, some Creationists are just as bad when it comes to trying to eliminate ideas from the arena of debate:
Pressure from ultraconservative religious groups has prompted some theaters equipped with the high quality panoramic IMAX screens to cancel showings of several movies which refer to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution.Look, if you believe that strongly that your version of events is correct, defend it with ideas, don't suppress it. And that goes for both sides in this debate. Defeating the opposing theory with superior ideas and facts is noble and honorable. Suppressing the opposing theory is cowardly and repressive.
