How the hell am I intolerant? I just said that having a debate on evolution is akin to having a debate on gravity. It's a waste of time. These debates should be left outside the science classroom or conversations with your teacher or professor during your own time, not class time. I also think we should perhaps have religious studies classes where we can compare different creation theories from different cultures and then maybe we will realize that they were all wrong. Hell maybe we are still wrong. But we must use the scientific method to find out and frankly you cannot test creationism or ID since the argument is basically " creatures are too complex to have been created out of nothing". Of course we didn't get created out of nothing but rather bacteria, who are very good at existing. We can basically find them in any form of habitat and in fact we might be close to discovering some on mars. And when there are enough bacteria of the right type the atmosphere can become oxygenated and more complex life can form from there. So yeah how the f*** am I intolerant?
As soon as you said, "There is nothing to debate," you showed your intolerance.
You'll note that I've just said that I don't agree with my old science teacher who thought liquid water proved God existed. Some of the debate, as it crept in, gave me the ability to realize that her logic was wrong. I was better able to evaluate an argument, because I was exposed to one.
Since you said, "Of course we didn't get created out of nothing but rather bacteria, who are very good at existing." My next question is "Okay, where did that bacteria come from?" 
I can tell you two things will happen. I'll keep asking you, "Okay, where did ______ come from?" You, if you are honest, will say, "I don't know," or "Nobody knows." I've been asking that question since I was three. I keep getting the same answers, eventually.
He still isn't being intolerant at all. People like this should not teach evolution if they bring this stuff up and try to teach it in a secular education system. I don't have a problem with it, if they believe in it personally. Do I think it is a very stupid idea and that they need to study the Bible more? Yes but I respect their belief.
