Evolution is just a religion masquerading as science.

Why do creationists feel the need to lie about evolution?

The only lie is that evolution is science. Evolution is a philosophy.
Evolution is a belief system about the origins of life and its past,
completely devoid of empirical scientific evidence.

That's a good example of a creationist feeling the need to lie about
evolution.

Well why don't you provide the empirical scientific evidence for all
life evolving from a common ancestral cell, considering that you're
implying that I'm a liar.
