Is atheism predicated partially on the belief in evolution and the current prevailing views of science.
If so, then such a belief is subject to drastic changes as discoveries and theories
have recently arose that shatter the paradigm that is the foundation of such a belief:
Discoveries keep pushing back the inception of civilization, indefinitely back in time
Evidence of coastal civilizations existing during the ice age are arising in now inundated coastal region due to rising seas.
The concept of a missing link is no longer postulated as a bush of hominids lineages walked the earth. With what was once considered ancestors, actually being contemporary with postulated descendants. A bush of hominids actually existed as recently as 30,0000 B.C.E.
Though theories of evolution abound no working scientific model exists for the emergence of life.
Our very existence is interwoven with the anthropic principle. As such this has required scientist to postulate the multiverse to explain how the anthropic principle is mindlessly satisfied by nature. However this just substitutes one unfalsifiable believe for another.
In truth, Darwin's world has been shattered and the truth has become intractable. Even as we cope with dark matter and energy. Terms that falsely connote that we have defined them, when in fact they are no more apparent than God. As such new scientific theories continue to emerge based on the inadequacy of the standard model. This will continue into infinitum since, as God there is no means to detect these alleged entities with scientific instrumentation.

The Good News is that God is real and his Martyrs have walked the planet, but they are not apart of the above.

What a sad little god you have, who requires people to martyr themselves for him. A real god would wish his creations joy and happiness, a Netflix weekend with endless beer, a warm puppy, you know, good stuff --
You HAVE heard of good stuff, haven't you? Or is it all religion with you? Now THAT would be my definition of hell!

But then we come to the BIG one, the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything, and we KNOW that that's 42!!
Permalink Reply by James Cox on August 11, 2012 at 12:11am I might be an AtoZ- type of atheist. I dislike people that pretend to classify with the underlying quiet assertion that everyone, atheist, has to fill some nitch. I want my life back from theists, classifiers, and system builders. I don't want theists pretending that my dis-belief is about them, like their 'god' has any force except to distract.

Perhaps indirectly.
Creationism is predicated on the Genesis dogma, and (ironically) tries to hijack science to disprove evolution. So some people probably become atheists out of anger because of the pseudo-science of Creationism. (See Project Steve.)
