Does Evolution Require Atheism? Options

[Tung]

Well does it? Most religious people and hardcore scientists today are often incline to believe that atheism and evolution are rigorously intertwined. According to the majority (us), we are thought to believe that if one is to accept evolution as the explanation for life on Earth, it usually leads that person to become an atheist.

The problem I have with this assumption is that I don’t agree with it. Contrary to popular belief, evolution actually doesn’t explain anything about the origins of the universe, the world, or life in general. You can say Evolution is more of an explanation on the development of life.

I personally believe a person can accept evolution as an explanation for the advancement of life, and the diversity, while still being able to believe that the Earth and life were first caused by God. Therefore, there’s no reason why a person can’t be a theist and at the same time accept the theory of evolution.

Thoughts?

Thats retarded. Atheism requires evolution though, because Creation and Reincarnation are the only other widely accepted theories.

Not necessarily true. Because evolution is actually real. But to an extent. Just because we find proof of evolution in one thing, we shouldn't automatically associate everything that exist with evolution. Above that, God never said that evolution is not real. Only the ignorant followers of God have made such claims.
