Rant on Theories, Laws & Misconceptions Options

I hesitated creating a thread regarding this but this is really the best medium in which many people can talk openly about something w/o much consequence. Plus I'm big on freedom of speech and so here it goes.

Friday night I go and see Damon Wayans stand up. Second time I saw him, and he was pretty funny the first time. This time he wasn't nearly as funny. Mainly because he started attacking anything that wasn't Christian. Oh boy. So he goes on to say that evolution is the stupidest thing he's ever heard and goes about mocking how its ridiculous something just formed and one day hopped out of the water and another day got legs and another day jumped up into a tree and then finally said "I got to get a job" as a human.

Hilarious. Oh wait, its not. In fact I was flabberghasted and the level of sheer stupidity emanating from this mans mouth. Evolution is the stupidest thing he's heard? Did he think it happened in 6 days? He then continued to say that atheism is on the rise and its basically got to be stopped and how its horrible not to believe in anything.

By now your thinking, where is he going with this? My dilemma which is actually eating at me is how many of you think that evolution isn't real? How many people think that evolution happened overnight; and how many people are under the impression that evolution is just a hypothesis, nothing more than a guess; how many people think atheism is evil? Im genuinely curious.

If I dont get any responses to this I'll chalk it up to I wrote too much, you got tired, fell asleep and drooled on your keyboard. I also want to say that if you do decide to respond, you do it in an intelligent, RESPECTFUL manner. I'm not looking for this to get closed because religion is a very very touchy subject. This is primarily for those who have an open mind, and willing to engage in intelligent conversation.

Thanks.

NJ - your a little unfamiliar with the scientific process. Theories have already been studied beyond a shadow of a doubt to be true. Hypotheses are those which are explanations where they think this is why it happens. Its not like they can take "the belief in god" and test it and test it because its impossible. Its not an observation. Its a feeling, a belief. You cant disprove god because theres nothing to observe, its faith. So when you say they havent disproven god its because they aren't, they cant, its impossible. What they can do is explain everything else that was once attributed to god. And in consequence, it sorta disproves his existence "according to the bible etc."

Jen - there is seperation of church and state. No its not stated in those words but it does state that the government does not support one religion over another. If you, or anyone can find the text of the constitution regarding this that'd be great. The states define marriage as between man and woman. It has nothing to do with religion really.
