Re: Scientific laws
one of Darwin's great protagonist Thomas Huxley( also known as Darwin's bulldog) once said that he accepted evolution because of his philosophical faith.
You don't think anyone in here has heard of Huxley before, or the account of him being Darwin's Bulldog?
You need to look at it in context. You are viewing it in terms of evolution having been created as a means of repudiating religion, rather than simply being an inference based on certain observations.
Charles Darwin himself didn't much see the comparison either.
"Science has nothing to do with Christ, except insofar as the habit of scientific research makes a man cautious in admitting evidence. For myself, I do not believe that there ever has been any revelation. As for a future life, every man must judge for himself between conflicting vague probabilities." -- Charles Darwin
Some people have used evolution as a means of proving to religionists that there is no need of a Creator. That doesn't automatically indict all evolutionists as having a master plan to overthrow the shackles of religion.
It's a pointless endeavor, for any allusion you make for evolution being a belief you invariably indict yourself for going against because of your belief.
Let's be honest here. Evolutionists gain nothing from evolution, but religion as we know it is directly threatened by it, which is why they fight tooth and nail to subvert it.

"Political correctness is tyranny with manners." -- Charlton Heston
