The Pope thinks anyone who doesn't believe in evolution is an idiot. So you don't have to not believe in god to say evolution is real.


The pope thinks that? Which one? Surely not catholic pope. Creationism is still an official Catholic Church state on this subject.
Surely you don't have to be atheist to accept evolution but when if you as a catholic accept evolution than it puts your catholicism into question (I know that lots of catholics accept evolution anyway and church doesnt make a big rant about it but what I wrote is still true).

 Actually both the Catholic and Anglican churches have to some extent accepted evolution. To quote Pope John Paul II "Evolution is more than just a hypothesis". I believe the Arch Bishop of Canterbury has said something to similar effect.
