Yes, but you need to do it in a way that makes it clear you are not trying to destroy their belief in God. You can’t convince anyone of anything while they are on the defensive, and attacking their beliefs will do exactly that.

While I don’t disagree with that in principle, I always wonder why that forebearance is only expected to go one way; pro-evolution people are supposed to walk on eggshells to avoid offending creationists, but creationists are allowed to lie, distort, misquote scientists, and scream about their hurt feelings.

It just don’t seem fair.
