Why Darwin DISSENTERS are right
You see, as a Creationist, I have nothing to lose. If evolution (darwin's molecule to man MYTH) were true, I would accept it and still believe in GOD...it would not negate Him. It would not affect my faith at all.
But on the other hand, atheists HAVE to fight to keep darwin's MYTH alive because they have no alternative. They do not wish to believe in GOD, so they have to place their faith in their false god darwin and his MYTH. If they acknowledge it is merely a belief system, then they are forced to realize they may be wrong...and have to accept GOD's existence.

Nothing in the ToE says one has to stop believing in a god. One couldn't really believe in the truth of the Bible creation stroies, but one could believe in a god.
Easiet is just to accept the facts and live a life compatable with them. Your trouble seems to be in winnowing the facts from the crap.
We all realize that evolution may be replaced by a better theory in the future. I wouldn't wait up nights for that to happen though since the theory nicely describes and predicts every piece of evidence we see.
As a creationist you are just stupid.
There are lots of christians who think that the ToE is true (there are even christian evolutionary biologists).
Obviously they have no "need to keep the ToE alive justto get rid of god", nevertheless they agree that the ToE is backed up with enough evidence to make it the most plausible explanation for the developmentof the different species out there.

Then what are you afraid of?

Read what you wrote here again... very slowly. Then give it a minute.
"You see, as a Creationist, I have nothing to lose. If evolution (darwin's molecule to man MYTH) were true, I would accept it and still believe in GOD...it would not negate Him. It would not affect my faith at all. "
Yes and the Theory of Evolution, just like all of science, has nothing to say on the existence of your god. If you believe in god and are rational enough to accept reality (which is doubtful) then you have a choice: either your god used evolution to create or he/she/it/they is a liar who placed all of the evidence, discovered by almost every scientific discipline, here to fool us. Which is it, an omnipotent god or a weak, petty, lying trickster?
"They do not wish to believe in GOD..."
How on Earth do I go about believing in something that doesn't exist?
"...so they have to place their faith in their false god darwin and his MYTH."
No. Darwin was a scientist, not a god. You seem rather confused. I blame religion.
So then why can't you believe in evolution and God at the same time, like many Christians do? It's always the Christian creationists who are fighting evolutionary theory. We atheists don't give a rat's ass about your god whether or not evolutionary theory is valid.
And by the way, if you were able to totally disprove evolution today, it doesn't mean creationism is true. So we wouldn't have to accept anyone's god myth.
"You see, as a Creationist, I have nothing to lose."
You do if it turns out the Egyptians were right.
Dictionary.com
MYTH-a traditional or legendary story, usually concerning some being or hero or event, with or without a determinable basis of fact or a natural explanation, esp. one that is concerned with deities or demigods and explains some practice, rite, or phenomenon of nature
THEORY-a coherent group of general propositions used as principles of explanation for a class of phenomena
Lets see....which one sounds like Creationsim and which sounds like Evolution?
No, I would not be forced to accept your gawd or its existence. Even if ToE were found to be wrong, then it would just be finding what actually occurred. I certainly would not automatically then assume your magic sky ghost to be real.
YOU VERY NEARLY GOT IT. YOU WERE SO VERY VERY CLOSE.
Evolution is true, but it DOESN'T negate the existence of any sort of deity. You can STILL BELIEVE IN GOD. You just have to stop taking the first few chapters of Genesis literally.

Who are you trying to convince?
There were atheists before Darwin, and, if Darwin is wrong, there will be atheists after. Evolution does not negate god. And the absense of evolution does not mean that there has to be a god. It really is not that hard to figure out.
First, the bible myth is only one among thousands of imaginary speculations. Pascal guarantees you only a fraction of a percent chance of correctness.
Second, there have been 150 years' worth of chances to refute Darwin's original hypothesis. It hasn't been refuted by any competent science; all newly discovered evidence supports ToE.
Third, religion has no business challenging the Theory, since it has exactly zilch for evidence.
"atheists HAVE to fight to keep darwin's MYTH alive because they have no alternative"
Gosh, then I wonder what atheists did for the 3 millenia before Darwin came up with his "myth"?
Oh right, they just substituted "lacking belief in gods" instead. Cunning.
Of course you have much to lose. This seems to be denial like the rest of the statement. Among obvious things, the post lacks coherence. I can mention other things that may appear to be lost as a result of this kind of fallacious reasoning: intellectual honesty, reality assessment, critical thinking skills...
So according to you, the discovery of genetics for instance, must also be some grand atheist conspiracy. Because it allowed to confirm evolution and correct and improve phylogenetic trees, etc. And to develop a new theory, even more complete, the New Synthesis. Hard sciences like geology and physics must also be some kind of Satanic conspiracy, because they confirm an old Earth, that the flood myth of Noah never happened, etc. It seems that someone captured your mind and stole the ability to reason from you, to make you reject reality. In favor of human myths, what you apparently loathe.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
