Seriously, in both History of Archaeology and Evolutionary Anthropology, I would spend about a full class period discussing the lack of conflict between faith and science in Reformation anthropology, another discussing the influence of Enlightenment evolutionism on pre-Darwinian evolution, and another talking about how Darwinian evolutionism basically turned the Enlightenment on its head (it keeps the separation between faith and science, loses all that Frenchy equality/rationality stuff).

But I don't teach those classes any more. Suckers!!!

Oh wait, I kind of liked those courses.

I would say that Darwinian evolution does that for *scientists* but clearly it doesn't satisfy the religious elements ;)

The rest I agree with, though!
