For the record, I was commenting on Bob's statement:
  " ... I do believe evolution exists ..."

Also, the word "belief" has tremendous elasticity. Consider:

- I believe I am sitting down.
- I believe I am Napoleon.
- I believe that if if I press the Shift+A keys, an "A" will appear.
- I believe someone I saw on TV was abducted by aliens.

so I don't feel embarassed to confirm that I believe in evolution.
