The evo-devo "debate" is a misnomer.
"Debate" implies that both sides have something equally valid to bring to the table.
Evolution, as AndyJ2 says, is a scientific fact. It is supported by huge amounts of evidence and is not disputed by any serious scientist.
Creationism is a bronze age made up story which flies in the face of the actual evidence. (Evidence= as in facts - things we actually know and can prove)
For the benefit of the hard of thinking let me make it even simpler
Evolution = proven fact.
Creationism = made up story. No proof. None. Zilch.
Now how utterly braindead thick would you have to be to choose the one that's based on fairy tale speculation over the incontrovertible facts?
There is no "debate".
Now I ask again.
What is there to respect about religion?
Now:
Southern took my statement
If you claim that something is true, I will examine the evidence which supports your claim; if you have no evidence, I will not accept that what you say is true and I will think you a foolish and gullible person for believing it so
And said this
It doesn’t really matter each to their own...
Oh but it does.
People are being killed every day in the name of unprovable claims made by religion.
Religion is a murderous blight upon humanity based upon ignorance and superstition.
"Each to their own" implies that this is some kind of acceptable situation.
