That's pure, triple-distilled BS. Darwin's Origin of Species came before Mendel's work. I'll proceed to disregard all your other comments, since you've no idea what you're talking about.

And speaking about muslims and science, I wonder why they didn't find out about gravity before Newton, or why they didn't come up with relativity. Those know-it-all muslims didn't know that much, isn't that so?

Anyway, the point of this thread is not to debate religion. It's about shaping our own future rather than leaving it for an optimization process that doesn't cares about us at all (evolution), or vain hopes of mythological gods.

Apparently only Proto and Coolsvilleman really got it (although I never expected Seta-San to do so).
