A:Evolution is well supported by the evidence, not 'proven'. Prove is a term mathematicians and lawyers use, not scientists.

Because their religious ideology blinds them to the fact of evolution and the theory of evolution by natural selection which explains much about the fact of evolution. go to the NCSE website for further enlightenment.

A:For many people, religion is part of their person identity - it is part of who they are. And some people accept no compromise with their religious belief that God made the world just as we see it now, and just a few thousand years ago. To say otherwise is therefore effectively to deny who they are. In these cases, proof of evolution makes no difference. It is far more important for such people to continue believing in a special act of creation than to adopt any rational but contrary position.

Do you believe in God and evolution?

Evolution is not a religion, nor is it necessary to choose between God and evolution.There is overwhelming evidence for evolution, which is regarded as a fact of science that can only be disputed by people who choose not to know about the strength of the evidence. Thus, evolution is not something merely to believe in, but can be proven and demonstrated. If it really were necessary to choose between religion and evolution, then many would be forced to agree with evolution simply because it can not be denied, other than by choosing not to know the science. Fortunately for the world's religions, it really is possible to believe in God and accept the science of evolution. This may mean regarding the biblical creation as an allegory, but creation literally in six days does not have to be a core belief of Christianity.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation

Evolution is fact. Religion is a matter of belief. Believe only that which you can prove.ANOTHER OPINIONEvolution is fact. It has been proven by geological records. However this does not disprove religion. Id disproves the creation theory of Christianity, but not religion. You should believe what you heart tells you. I was once a strict atheist that dismissed anyone who believed in a God, but now I'm not so sure, i am on my own spiritual Journey. However as the other answer said, evolution has been scientifically proven, there is no arguing with that.

Is evolutionism the same as atheism?

"Evolutionism" is nonsense, not because evolution is incorrect, but accepting its validity is not a religious claim like Creationism actually is. By the logic of calling the acceptance of evolution as evolutionism, we should call people gravitationalists, roundworldists, and germists because they "believe" in gravity, a round world, and that germs cause diseases. Evolution by natural selection simply means that by random genetic differences selected by environmental factors, creatures slowly change from one species to another. The largest number of people who accept evolution are Christians, not Atheists, even though a much larger percentage of Atheists accept evolution than Christians. Evolution says nothing about God, souls, the afterlife, or our place in the universe. It only explains the diversity of life.Atheism is the rejection of all god claims. It is a specific claim about what religions can demonstrate to be true.
