Evolution deniers (ED) are better EDucated and tend to think for themselves.
We choose not to believe in evolution and accept what real science (puts
on the moon gives us computers science) says about how life and
organisms work.

You, as a believer in evolution (BiE) do so in spite of the science or
the facts...and choose to believe evolution has occurred.
Terminology I like to describe you folks is "DUBE's" (DUped By
Evolution) Personally I think you people have smoked one too many DUBEs,
that is why you cannot think critically about this absurd belief in ToE.
