Live, my brother, always in the Truth, and fearlessly, because the truest of all facts and acts, is the fact and act of the Resurrection of Christ. This one event has given a new bravery to the soul of man, which remains undaunted no matter what evidence turns up, because hard as they search far and wide, they will never find His body lying in a tomb.
I get offended when people expect me to say (just because I don't fit their idea of being 'Christian') that science, especially this issue of evolution, is damaging to faith in God.Archbishop Lazar speaks the truth.
I hold the view of the (at times) controversial Archbishop Lazar Puhalo: "If any scientific theory undermines your faith, you probably didn't have any faith in the first place".

Fr Thomas Hopko also says, "One of the greatest engines for atheism, which may even rival Darwinism, is the stupidity of Christians".
True Christians are not "iffy" with respect to their belief in Christ. Agnostics and skeptics -- as well as atheists -- are not Christians.
True Christians continue to believe in Christ, regardless of conclusions made from scientific or other data that may be contrary to this belief.
Moreover, true Christians are cognizant of Christ's teachings, and live their lives accordingly.
