No, I don't think so .. I've made sure to attack creationists in my above posts and not christians. I know people (even scientists) who are christian and are able to unite their faith with God with belief in science.

People also make the mistake thinking that science is anti-religious. It's not, it's just pro-truth. If the earth is scientifically proven to be older than 6000 years old, that might provoke some fundamentalist christians .. but the goal of science is not to fight religion, it's to discover the truth. There's an important difference. As I often say, if there really is a god, then science aims to prove that. For some reason that idea often comes as a surprise to people.

edit :

The reason I started attacking creationists in the first place is that whatisit's quote was taken from a creationist webpage who use those quotes in a misleading manner to support the idea of creationism. It was not meant as criticism against christian people in general.
