Seems like some people want to have it both ways.

You are using logic. The Creationist arguments are not based on logic and facts, but, rather, rhetoric and deceit.

Evolution is a religion precisely because it is based on faith. It is based on faith in "science". This "science" is not the science of the Scientific Method. Rather it should be called Scientism, religion in the image of science.
When scientists speak, Evolutionists listen. Even when the relics of Evolutionary Icons are shown to be fabrications, Evolutionists maintain their faith. They have been searching for transitional forms for 150 years. They still haven't found them, but they truly believe that they exist.
They have never seen evolution, but they "know" it to be true. They even claim that variation in species is proof of evolution, which it certainly isn't.
Science is the search for truth. Evolutionism is the belief in an idea of a man who thought he descended from an ape.

Because they understand neither evolution nor faith. Evolution is in no sense a religion; furthermore, it is a proven fact. Faith is evil -- indeed, the ultimate evil: it is the deliberate rejection of the only thing that makes us human: the ability to reason.

I have never heard people claim evolution is a religion. It is considered a science. Or, if it makes you feel more comfortable, a scientific theory.

I'm not an evolutionist. I'm a gravitist. I am a firm believer in the doctrines of Isaac Newton.

Methinks evolution was written by men who read the Bible first. I don't know of any evolutionist who had it vice versa. (But you can tell me if I'm wrong...)

They're saying that evolutionists hold their faith uncritically. Ironic.
