some great suggestions!

Exercising faith in and acting on a religious principle (pick one) is
subjecting it to a test. Consider one's life before application of the
treatment as a control. Data are taken by experiencing the effect of the

Although I agree that evolutionary theory doesn't (technically) threaten the
