The real question of course is: Do you believe in Revolution?

Theology is a science and I think that is where the evolution vs Creationism/ID should take place, in a theology classroom.

The problem with this debate is that if there is God, anything's possible. God could have made the earth look like it was older than it actually is to fool poor biologists and geologists and physicists. A scientist however should not be bothered with this possibility. He should accept that what he sees is the truth and if he does not believe it he should find another job.

Because science has proven that the universe has not always existed?

Well what I'm trying to say is that if you can accept the Christian God or the God of Abraham, you can deny any and all scientific facts found on evolution or any other scientific topic conflicting with the bible. I do think that there's no way you can be an atheist and not believe in evolution.

Also I'd like to not that theology is a real science as it studies, besides the nature of God, religion which is definitely real.
