No only causes it.
Creationism can't be accepted when you talk about things like bird flu
"Whoever would overthrow the liberty of a nation must begin by subduing the freedom of speech." Benjamin Franklin.
"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little safety deserve neither liberty nor safety" Benjamin Franklin.
Religion has no place in politics.
Here's some better sarcasm:
I hope that God decides your fate early and makes sure you suffer(he ~not she~ does that). The good lord loves me, but he hates you people for believing that "evolution" nonsense. He created all of us, and science hasn't done anything positive for us like Jesus has!
Lolz.
The number of christians are shrinking and they will all die out eventualy
It may take time fore some areas of the world! but it will happen with time eventualy!
Ive seen it happen here in scandinavia
Its simpel Evolution really
The unfit and insane and uneducated will die out, and the Fit , sane rational will survive
I live in norway in scandinavia. And we have less than 10% of people that are religius.
And most of them are immigrants and have brought their religion with them. And their numbers are shrinking.
I do belive that this eventualy will happen all over the world, mabye not in my lifetime but eventualy, unless the Fundamentalist destroy the earth first
