		<description>Due, I&#039;m honoured!

Here&#039;s the definitive Ray-volution, er, definition from Ray:

&quot;[Evolution (sic, sic)!, a &quot;fairy-tale for grownups&quot; is] basically idolatry creating God in their own image — a god that doesn’t require moral accountability and that’s why it’s so embraced by this generation.&quot;

And here is the accepted definition of &#039;evolution&#039;, by way of contrast:

&quot;Evolution can be precisely defined as any change in the frequency of alleles within a gene pool from one generation to the next.&quot;


Don&#039;t forget Ray&#039;s particular brand of &#039;Raytheism&#039;.  Raytheists like to quote and paste his catchphrase-rich mantras.

Witness the Ten Raytheist Commandments (Yes he has claimed all of the following):


1. There is no such thing as an atheist

2. Atheists use their intellect and look for evidence, rather than using trust.

3. But then again, atheists rely on faith.

4. You can&#039;t make an atheist think.

5. Atheists rely on intellect rather than faith (they *think* too much)

6. The intelligent atheist is not an atheist.

7. Atheists rely on faith rather than evidence.

8. Atheists don&#039;t understand the difference between &#039;trust&#039; and &#039;faith&#039;.

9. &quot;I abhor religion. It is the opiate of the masses. It has left a bloody trail of destruction and human misery throughout history.&quot;

10.  &quot;Science without religon is lame&quot;


All the best,
