Science scratches its' head

But I was at a loss of words concerning how even to begin to answer.

Since this post is now on Alt-Views, I can connect what is being done to "ruin" God's reputation to the same tactics designed to "ruin" America's reputation. Thru our educational system, America is being painted as an evil country with evil origins. The (mis-)treatment of African Americans and native Indians is their "proof."

For those who long to see evil in God and His word, there is no answer. Jesus said our faith must be as a child -- trusting in our earthly and our heavenly Father. God allows "reasons" for their unbelief so that no one is mentally compelled to believe in Him. Faith is a choice. Yet, we have options. We can see what we want to see, and believe what we want to believe. Two people look at the same events, one sees God is good, and one sees God is evil. That's the way it is. Some things don't make sense.

Going back to the OP's topic, why is it that some look at creation and see God's handiwork, and some only see evolution? How can they reconcile these positions? How can they look at creation and say there is no God, and then look at man's history and say God is evil?
