>>God made evolution, prof says>>>

Well stated.
Proof of evolution exists today in Malaria, in Aids, and in the flu virus. Besides the changing form and intelligence of humans even in the last 10k years.

Religion is a way to put some stability in our everyday lives, to see a future when the changes appear or become overwhelming.

Scriptures were written too long ago, in a different age and conditions , but changing them defeats the benefits of secure (unchanging) beliefs.

One example would be Mohammeds recommendation to kill all the infidels.
When he wrote that, it was possible for man-to-man combat to defeat an enemy.
But that is bad advice to follow today, equivalent to committing suicide.

The chances of disabling an MI tank or hitting a cruise missile in flight by standing in a street and shooting 9mm bullets at them can be computed with modern mathematics to be, well, zilch.
