    A Question for Theistic Evolutionists

    You are right. That is what has been happening throughout our history. Science may not be able to conclusively disprove the existence of gods, but scientific discoveries have been making god(s) irrelevant and unnecessary in one area after another, forcing the theistic god to become more and...

    Belief in God as a Byproduct of Human Evolution

    No! If the theory in the OP is accurate, then you would expect all humans to have hyper-active agent detection devices, which we do. MB.

    my recent ponderings of creationism vs. evolution

    The friction between science and religion is not because science denies the existence of god, but it is due to the fact that science, by providing natural explanations, has been making god (and other super-natural agents) irrelevant and unnecessary in one area after another for centuries. MB.

    What is Morality and Where does it Come From?
