One who argues that evolution is the correct theory of origins for life on earth (instead of creationism or Intelligent Design). The word was coined by creationists as a way to mischaracterize scientists that denounce creationism. "Evolutionist" implies that evolution is merely an unsupported belief ultimately interchangeable with creationism. In fact, most scientists "believe" in evolution because the of the great amount of research and empirical evidence that supports it. The word evolutionist is a mildly offensive term to most scientists.
I see no reason to read the works of noted evolutionist Prof. Steve Steve-- the Bible has all the evidence I need.

Get the evolutionist mug.The theory that life forms change over time that is now being more widely accepted as the Law of Evolution.
For those idiots out there who argue with it on accounts of "But why are there still apes then?" or "Do you have any idea how unlikely it was for a single cell to evolve, our entire world too?"
you can easily go on believing that we humans were created by a god to be the dominant species on Earth, or you can face the fact that sooner or later a new type of human will emerge.(As long as we don't screw the planet up too badly before.)
Also; the chances? Not very high, but considering the fact that there is a chance and that it has happened don't you think that it probably already has? And will? Countless times? But then again why the hell should we humans care, we only live 80 years or so.

Get the Percussive education mug.The act of interpreting the Bible differently based upon current social events. Although the words are not altered, the meaning behind the words are said to mean something different. It's also important to note, there is no common consensus in the interpretation. It's primary purpose is to argue and defense a losing position.
Atheist: "The Bible speaks of killing homosexuals. Read Leviticus 20:13."
Theist: "The meaning behind Leviticus 20:13 doesn't mean to kill homosexuals. It means that it's a sin punishable by death, but since Jesus paid for our sins and killing homosexuals is morally wrong, all they should do is repent."
Atheist: "Come on Theist, that's Biblical Evolution in which you're trying to change the meaning of the Bible. I call bullshit."
