      here's a snippet from that article.

      Clearly evolutionists, at least atheistic evolutionists, are biased toward evolution as their religion. Richard Dawkins let the cat out of the bag when he admitted that Darwin made it possible to be an "intellectually fulfilled atheist."(5) Humanist manifestos I and II both indicate that humanists are biased. Humanist Manifesto I begins by defining as its first affirmation the supposition that humans are a part of nature and have emerged from a continuing natural process, and that modern science makes any supernatural view of the universe unacceptable. It also says the "traditional dualism of mind and body must be rejected."
      That the evolutionist religion speaks to ultimates as the origin of life and the origin of morals and our moral obligations has been recognized by such diverse philosophers as Peter Kreeft, Frank Zindler, Edward Wilson, Daniel Dennett, and others. What atheistic evolutionists envision is a world where there are no dogmatic absolutes and every moral judgement is tested against the needs of society - no matter how nebulous the concept of "society" is. This means that our social codes are very malleable and never unchangeable.
      I found this in the boring christianity-only-creationist forum. As no discussion ever happens amongst the choir boys, plus seeing as the OP discusses "atheistic evolution"- it seems obvious that a better place for it- or at least a thread discussing it- would be in a place other people could join in.

      So, let's hear peoples thoughts on this blokes (never seen him before in my life btw- where do these guys keep popping from?) essays. After a quick read it seems to be the same old horse poop, but I'm open to any suggestions.

      Yeah, I took a look at it and found the whole thing quite silly and not worth responding to, even if I could have,

      I couldn't connect to the link but if you hated it then it must have something very good!
