Sounds like your guys' idea of Christianity has been warped by Fundamentalists. Fundamentalists are fucking stupid in every way.
While I don't go to church much anymore, I do believe in a God, and the Catholic belief in creationary evolution. Even the most seasoned scientists would say everything comes from something. Our God could be aliens for all we know. Whatever the case may be, as a man deeply rooted in Science, I firmly believe that we were somehow created, even if all that was created was that first spark of life.
