Not believing in evolution is not the same as not believing in science. It's simply not agreeing with the conclusions of certain scientists


This is absurd. There is no scientific controversy regarding natural selection—there are only religious communities who willfully ignore the scientific method because it contradicts their foregone conclusions.


It's good to have the experience of interacting with someone far more intelligent than yourself who nevertheless believes things you think, with good reason, to be nonsense. It teaches one humility, to question the nature of "knowledge" and how it is attained, and the limits of "intelligence" alone to divine reality and arrive at consensus.
