Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
Ohh but the theory of gravity and evolution are not the same type of theory Bellman!
No, they're not.

The theory of gravity is not an observation at all. Theories aren't observations, they're attempts to explain observations.

No, they're not.

Much of modern science does not object to evolution. That is false, and you cannot support it.

I haven't seen the math that points to God. He may exert the attraction between every particle and every other particle, but I need more than your faith to believe it.
I've been perusing the days posts and I'd like to publically address puddleglum with 2 requests.
1. Please don't quote long replies in their entirety just to respond with one word or "aahahhaha" or whatever. Excise the quote.
2. You're in over your head dude. I'd recommend reading up a bit more than the sources you claim to have read before posting. If you have a question, fine, but your assertions make me cry.

You creationists need to learn a bit of physics before you make such assertions. In truth, the theory of gravity (if you could say there really is one) is on far less solid ground than the theory of evolution. The mechanism of gravity (what the theory of gravity tries to explain) is truly not understood (we understand gravity over large distances but have no real understanding of how it works over short distances), while the mechanisms of evolution are both well understood and observed.
