The Catholic Church, Church of England and many mainstream churches all accept the big bang and evolution. Lord Carey the former Archbishop of Canterbury put it rather well

“Creationism is the fruit of a fundamentalist approach to scripture, ignoring scholarship and critical learning, and confusing different understandings of truth".


Its nice to know that the majority of christians and atheists can at least agree and smile together if even it is at fundie expense. But behind the laughter is all our mutual despair at the fundamentalists striving so hard to destroy Christianity (and Islam etc) by turning it from religion to an ideology. The surveys still suggest that 29% of American christians are so extremist in their beliefs that they fall well outside of the accepted bounds of Christianity.

(It would at least be nice for greg to have the courage to say what sect he belongs to, so that GOOD Christians could have the chance to disassociate themselves from him!)

When have I ever said anything like wanting unbelievers punished?

Maybe you're projecting.
