doubt that. Need I remind you that same sex marriage is still banned in most states?
I have personally been refused a job on the basis that I was an atheist, and other people have been killed because of it.

Neither is the fact that most Americans wouldn't vote for an atheist, even if he was well equipped for the job. Neither is the fact that people have been killed even now for their nonbelief.
As I said, I've been refused a job before for being an atheist, and your words can't change that.

Wow, you have just converted me with your astounding wit and evidence, and all your specific examples of how science is flawed!
Okay, let's say he did set off the big bang. You still have plenty more to argue, mostly evolution.
The bible isn't right all the time... Oh, this is pointless, what is with Athiests and Christians?
I believe they there is probably not a God, almost definitely not a biblical God, and he did not set off the big bang... Just let us get on with our faith in a chance ruled universe instead of calling us wrong with no evidence and portraying us as unhappy and lesser people because of it.

Except the Christians seem to feel anyone who isn't one of them is evil; and I have experienced that, Wicca isn't exactly an easy thing to follow when your high school is roughly 75% Christian lol.

No, but it is self-correcting. If someone claims something may have occurred, it doesn't get blindly accepted, it gets tested by lots of qualified people. Science is rigorous. Check
this video
about the Scientific method.
I see your point, but even then he's wrong. 'Science' isn't always right or even nearly right or even always wrong, because science isn't a fact. Science is a practice of said scientific method.

Are you implying that religion and evolution can't coexist?Religion? No.
Christianity, however, is much more difficult to reconcile with evolution. If evolution is true (which most educated people agree that it is), where did original sin come from if not from the magic truth apple?

Our accepted theory of evolution and Abrahamic religions, yes.
יג וַיְהִי-עֶרֶב וַיְהִי-בֹקֶר, יוֹם שְׁלִישִׁי. {פ} 13 And there was evening and there was morning, a third day. {P}
יד וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים, יְהִי מְאֹרֹת בִּרְקִיעַ הַשָּׁמַיִם, לְהַבְדִּיל, בֵּין הַיּוֹם וּבֵין הַלָּיְלָה; וְהָיוּ לְאֹתֹת וּלְמוֹעֲדִים, וּלְיָמִים וְשָׁנִים. 14 And God said: 'Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;
טו וְהָיוּ לִמְאוֹרֹת בִּרְקִיעַ הַשָּׁמַיִם, לְהָאִיר עַל-הָאָרֶץ; וַיְהִי-כֵן. 15 and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth.' And it was so.
טז וַיַּעַשׂ אֱלֹהִים, אֶת-שְׁנֵי הַמְּאֹרֹת הַגְּדֹלִים: אֶת-הַמָּאוֹר הַגָּדֹל, לְמֶמְשֶׁלֶת הַיּוֹם, וְאֶת-הַמָּאוֹר הַקָּטֹן לְמֶמְשֶׁלֶת הַלַּיְלָה, וְאֵת הַכּוֹכָבִים. 16 And God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; and the stars.
יז וַיִּתֵּן אֹתָם אֱלֹהִים, בִּרְקִיעַ הַשָּׁמָיִם, לְהָאִיר, עַל-הָאָרֶץ. 17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
יח וְלִמְשֹׁל, בַּיּוֹם וּבַלַּיְלָה, וּלְהַבְדִּיל, בֵּין הָאוֹר וּבֵין הַחֹשֶׁךְ; וַיַּרְא אֱלֹהִים, כִּי-טוֹב. 18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness; and God saw that it was good.
יט וַיְהִי-עֶרֶב וַיְהִי-בֹקֶר, יוֹם רְבִיעִי. {פ} 19 And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day. {P}
כ וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים--יִשְׁרְצוּ הַמַּיִם, שֶׁרֶץ נֶפֶשׁ חַיָּה; וְעוֹף יְעוֹפֵף עַל-הָאָרֶץ, עַל-פְּנֵי רְקִיעַ הַשָּׁמָיִם. 20 And God said: 'Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let fowl fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.'
כא וַיִּבְרָא אֱלֹהִים, אֶת-הַתַּנִּינִם הַגְּדֹלִים; וְאֵת כָּל-נֶפֶשׁ הַחַיָּה הָרֹמֶשֶׂת אֲשֶׁר שָׁרְצוּ הַמַּיִם לְמִינֵהֶם, וְאֵת כָּל-עוֹף כָּנָף לְמִינֵהוּ, וַיַּרְא אֱלֹהִים, כִּי-טוֹב. 21 And God created the great sea-monsters, and every living creature that creepeth, wherewith the waters swarmed, after its kind, and every winged fowl after its kind; and God saw that it was good.
כב וַיְבָרֶךְ אֹתָם אֱלֹהִים, לֵאמֹר: פְּרוּ וּרְבוּ, וּמִלְאוּ אֶת-הַמַּיִם בַּיַּמִּים, וְהָעוֹף, יִרֶב בָּאָרֶץ. 22 And God blessed them, saying: 'Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.'
כג וַיְהִי-עֶרֶב וַיְהִי-בֹקֶר, יוֹם חֲמִישִׁי. {פ} 23 And there was evening and there was morning, a fifth day. {P}
כד וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים, תּוֹצֵא הָאָרֶץ נֶפֶשׁ חַיָּה לְמִינָהּ, בְּהֵמָה וָרֶמֶשׂ וְחַיְתוֹ-אֶרֶץ, לְמִינָהּ; וַיְהִי-כֵן. 24 And God said: 'Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after its kind.' And it was so.
כה וַיַּעַשׂ אֱלֹהִים אֶת-חַיַּת הָאָרֶץ לְמִינָהּ, וְאֶת-הַבְּהֵמָה לְמִינָהּ, וְאֵת כָּל-רֶמֶשׂ הָאֲדָמָה, לְמִינֵהוּ; וַיַּרְא אֱלֹהִים, כִּי-טוֹב. 25 And God made the beast of the earth after its kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good.
כו וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים, נַעֲשֶׂה אָדָם בְּצַלְמֵנוּ כִּדְמוּתֵנוּ; וְיִרְדּוּ בִדְגַת הַיָּם וּבְעוֹף הַשָּׁמַיִם, וּבַבְּהֵמָה וּבְכָל-הָאָרֶץ, וּבְכָל-הָרֶמֶשׂ, הָרֹמֵשׂ עַל-הָאָרֶץ. 26 And God said: 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.'
כז וַיִּבְרָא אֱלֹהִים אֶת-הָאָדָם בְּצַלְמוֹ, בְּצֶלֶם אֱלֹהִים בָּרָא אֹתוֹ: זָכָר וּנְקֵבָה, בָּרָא אֹתָם. 27 And God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them.
It is saying that life went from nonexistent, to fully formed birds and land mammals, and that the human race had evolved within five days of Earth's creation.

Not all of them... Some religious people abuse their faith. but not all of them.

Mockery seems justified when known lies are perpetrated, if religions put their time and effort into discovering the truth instead of going into the wallets of televangelists, I doubt they'd be mocked as much.
And of course if you stopped the hate crimes too (like all those abortion doctors who keep getting murdered by the flock).
You disgust me.
DoctorLore, tell me now, are you seriously implying that christians kill abortion doctors? do not make me laugh. Listen, everyone is entitled to their opinion, leave it at that.

Not to mention the moon as an independent Light, when it only reflects the sun. I gues the Hebrews who made up that creation myth didn't realize that... :P

Nine times out of 10, the doctors are killed by the extremists from the Right to Life group... when they aren't impersonating Abortion doctors and put off the producer till after the 23rd week, when no doctor will do it.

Those murders were not carried out by christians... although the bible says abortion is immoral, if it is rape, I believe it is ok to abort. I am not a traditionalist.
Sorry, but my belief in Jesus stands firm. You cannot move me to athiesm..
Seriously, The Right to Life Group are going too far. two wrongs do not make a right... They are the extremists, not us.
