Evolution, Christians, and Muslims

Muslim students boycott classes on evolution: Muslim students, including trainee doctors, at University College London refuse to attend lectures dealing with evolution, arguing that Darwinist theory conflicts with the Koran. Comment: One wonders if they also boycott the books and don't study for exams. (November 27, 2011)

In this country, USA, such is, as it always has been, much more pronounced with Christians. Christians have been calling - with a high-intensity effort - for banning Darwin's evolution book and classes in our schools because they contradict the bible. It has been an ongoing, unsettling problem for lawyers fighting them and exhausting all legal avenues.

You see, the bible says the world was created in 7 days by God and that it was populated by inbreeding, i.e. mothers and sons, fathers and daughters having sex. Yuck!

And so I see, Christians are not the only game in town in such. Islamists too.

Don't you just love religion?
