Comment on The Wonder of Evolution

Yes, that's a good point. In the rank-and-file there's a lot lower acceptance of evolution in Islam. This undermines my point somewhat. I suppose one could point out the general lack of acceptance of science and more reactionary settings of a lot of Islam, or point out that anti-evolution sentiment is less major among prominent Muslim scholars and the like, but that's a much weaker argument, and wouldn't change the fact that my statement as stated is empirically false.
