I'm not an agnostic, either.
​
Creationists commonly associate evolution and much else in science with atheism. Hence we're treated to a constant barrage of phrases like "atheistic evolution", "Godless cosmology" and "immoral science". They'll mix and match adjectives and nouns to their heart's content, but the message is always the same: those who reject creationist views are atheists who reject or even hate God.
​
When the ID controversy in Dover, Pennsylvania, erupted into public acrimony, those on the side of science were condemned as atheists. It didn't matter if you were a church going Christian who taught Bible class and ran a summer Bible camp (specifically, Bryan Rehm and his wife), if you were against creationism then you were an atheist.
​
I disagree with Creationists because they are wrong, deeply and fatally wrong. It has nothing to do with atheism.
