How I wish we did. It would have been so much cool.

Kidding aside, I think that’s just limited to fundamentalists and the ultra-conservative, as majority of us know about Charles Darwin.

I’ve never understood the whole science vs. religion thing. I’m not exactly religious but I just don’t understand why god can’t create the universe and let science and evolution do the rest of the work.

It says in the bible he doesn’t. If the most important thing in their most sacred text is wrong, then the religion is wrong

Also plain ol' dumb fucks.

My parents weren't religious ("we believe in a higher power but dont know what") and then went to a non fundamentalists and not extreme church, and lived in California, but within months they were punishing me for believing in evolution because it was against the Bible they said, while also claiming it was interpretive and not literal.

They literally just knew evolution was something Christians stereotypically hate so decided they were against it too since they're Christian now.
