Ignorance is bliss. The increase in the number of "uneducated" immigrants and hardlined Muslim immigrants (Islam does not accept evolution science) will increase the support for creationism & intelligent design...very sad indeed.

evolution has been proven by other means .

Sometimes the line between evolution and christianity is blurred. Evolution is not just the theory that we came from apes. Evolution is just the theory that all creatures can evolve over time its like is a bear is mainly living in one environment and then moves to another that is evolution. The theory that man came from apes should not be taught nor the theory that man was made by God. That way nobody is offended. But Evolution should be taught.

yes they do, the Quran explains the relationship between science and religion, read it (the english version).

no, humans aren't evolved from anything.  they were created by God.

I believe that God created evolution.  Therefore, I believe in creationism.  Things evolve, but as far as man coming from beast, no way!

Yes, God says in the Quran that He has perfected the religion.\n\nIslam is all anyone needs, for the rest of the existence of humanity.  So far, history has proven its accuracy.  No new major world religion (comparable to Islam, Christianity, or Judaism, etc.) has come up since Islam.\n\nGod did not abandon humanity, but rather gave his mercy to us by giving us a perfect religion.  The message of Islam is enough.

The theory of evolution is backed by a lot of scientific proof, while religion isn't. Science is what we teach in schools. If you or your child think that intelligent design is what is correct, you can think of it as being informed as to what the theory of evolution is, not being told what actually happened.

1&2- Muslims don't believe God is everywhere. http://www.troid.org/articles/aqeedah/tawheed/asmaawassifaat/whereisallaah.htm\nHe can know about everythiong without having to be there. That would be like saying that whenwe see something happening outside our window, "we are there (outside)."\n\n3. "All Loving" - that sounds like all he ever does is love and never has anger. He's "The Most Loving."\n\n4. Made up, you're right.\n\n5. I don't believe the order or creation came from the chaos of gasses exploding, but that it comes from a Designer more intelligent that what was created. That's like saying a mentally challenged person could make a computer smarter than himself.\n\n6. There aren't different races. There is one race (human) and people are divided into family lines and language. We're not dogs and cats. We're all humans with different shades and features. What, are we supposed to be purple and identical? You call them gills, what's the big deal, we swim in placenta until bigger. I don't see the fact that species and humans have certain things that are similar as being proof that people came from monkeys. If we came from monkeys, why are monkeys still here!! I thought they EVOLVED.\n\n7. Yeah, and some animals eat others of the same type of animal. And some people murder other people. Doesn't make it right just because it exists. It's natural. Natural in the sense that it occurs often. Everyone was given some test in life.\n\n8. "God/Allah has written down the good deeds and the bad ones. Then He explained it [by saying that] he who has intended a good deed and has not done it, God/Allah writes it down with Himself as a full good deed, but if he has intended it and has done it, God/Allah writes it down with Himself as from ten good deeds to seven hundred times, or many times over. But if he has intended a bad deed and has not done it, Allah writes it down with Himself as a full good deed, but if he has intended it and has done it, God/Allah writes it down as one bad deed." (Hadith Qudsi)

God does...I believe in the creation of all, but that doesn't mean that some species haven't evolved...There is probably room for both God and science, in the whole scenario..but not knowing enough about evolution, I couldn't say what part it has in the scheme of things..\nAltho God is my primary focus, I try to keep an open mind and learn things...

It does not matter what I believe. The theory of evolution by natural selection is overwhelmingly supported by fact and argument. Intelligent Design is not supported by any facts that I know of and the argument seems to be basically, " a argument from ignorance ".

No, but I think modern monkeys and I had a common ancestor a very, very long time ago.  When a family diverges, they start getting different pretty quickly, depending on who they marry.  If one of my more recent ancestors went to China while my branch went to America, we'd look rather different now, wouldn't we? Why is it so hard to believe a more ancient equivalent, except because you are trying to take literally something which was written when scientific knowledge was extremely primative?\n\nScience and religion have two different goals, two different world views, and two vastly different vocabularies.  Religion is writing about things so beyond human experience that our words just do not fit, and we have to resort to symbols.  When you look at ancient manuscripts and ponder the symbols, you get a lot more than you get from words which have been sorted through any number of translations and interpretations since they were written.  Not a single word of the modern Bible (and remember, you go into a Bible Bookstore, you will find a great many modern versions, not just one) was originally written in English.  The writers had probably never even heard about that far-off island, and English as we know it had not been born.\n\nPlease, don't ridicule those of us who accept the theory of evolution as the most reasonable one.  We have let you continue to label it "theory" once most the rest of us have accepted it as fact.  Don't ask for more!

I believe in myself.  As for evolution, in a nutshell there are still monkeys because the group of monkeys we came from were forced to evolve due to a new enviroment and monkeys didn't have to evolve because their enviroment has pretty much been the same.  Understand though that this didn't happen in a day or seven but over a few million years, its a fact sorry but that doesn't mean that there isn't a god.

i guess if you believe in evolution because they are a mammal that breath air. but if you believe that God created everything then that would be a different story, right?

Evolution is a science in which the principles are continuously questioned, tested, and revised as new information is acquired.  The fact that some religions such as Hinduism are more compatible with evolutionary theory does not make it a product of the religion.    Secular Humanism, if you even qualify it as a religion, has adopted it, but did not create it.  If a pastor felt that Newtonian physics should be taught alongside the Ten Commandments, it would not make it religious doctrine.  Evolution can be studied without any attempt to prove or disprove the existence of God.\n\nIn summary, enough of your meaningless rhetoric.  Evolution belongs in schools, the Bible belongs in religious classes and parochial schools, and "Scientific" Creationism (but not Creationism) belongs in the trash.

I also understand evolution to be true.\nWe "paint" God as a man becaue we have no other understanding. We are only human after all.
