		<description>I like John McCain&#039;s answer much better and if you are going to say Obama is better because of his stance then also add McCain&#039;s here as well:

John McCain on teaching evolution

From his 2005 book “Character is Destiny”:

“Darwin helped explain nature’s laws. He did not speculate, in his published theories at least, on the origin of life. He did not exclude God, for Whom the immensity of time is but a moment, from our presence. The only undeniable challenge the theory of evolution poses to Christian beliefs is its obvious contradiction of the idea that God created the world as it is in less than a week. But our faith is certainly not so weak that it can be shaken to learn that a biblical metaphor is not literal history. Nature doesn’t threaten our faith. On the contrary, when we contemplate its beauty and mysteries we cannot quiet in our heart an insistent impulse of belief that for all its variations and inevitable change, before its creation, in a time before time, God let it be so, and, thus, its many splendors and purposes abide in His purpose.”



CNN: “I believe in evolution,” Sen. John McCain said. “But I also believe, when I hike the Grand Canyon and see it at sunset, that the hand of God is there also.”</description>

		<description>I am trying to understand why there is such competition between Science and God(title) Name(Yahweh). Most people are oblivious of the truth because they have no desire to know the truth. Truth is not hid from those who desire it with all of their heart. Most humans only desire to substantiate their ideology. To find Truth you must abandon all preconceived notions, traditions, prejudices and desire to be right. You must want Truth at all costs. Even if it shatters all your preconceived notions, ideologies, prejudices and desire to be right. Most that comment on this subject, I am willing to bet, really have no idea what science encompases. the definition of science is &quot;to know&quot;, to cut, to separate, and to discern.  When anyone applies these principles to the things of Yahweh, They will find the Bible to be true.  It amazes that the creation believes that it is more intelligent and knowledgable than the Creater(Yahweh).  If you just study the human body and the organization of the cells. You know there&#039;s a God. Who sets boundaries with the word of His mouth. You commentors must not know we as humans are Spirit, Soul and Body. When your spirit is enlightened then and only then are you able to see clearly. No person can deceive you. The problem is once you refuse Truth, you are self deceived, therefore you are bait for any deceivers. If you will fall on your face and cry out to Jesus(Yeshua) to show you the Truth, He will do just that. I Challenge all of you Truth seekers to try this and I guarantee things will began to open up to you. I am not talking about what somebody told me. I know Jesus(Yeshua) to be true through personal experience.</description>
