"Most Christians have no problem reconciling the two.
The problem is entirely with you!"

Then they're wrong. There is no place in science for religious belief or any other kind of belief. All scientific knowledge is predicated on evidence, not belief. And in order to espouse religious belief you have to suspend science. A creator, or a driver of evolution, can't be subjected to scientific scrutiny. That problem is entirely with you, because you put him there, not me.

"Is your case that Christians must not believe in evolution and cosmology?
Sorry but we do, just like you."

Scientists don't "believe" in evolution. They amass and assess evidence according to scientific principles. Belief means acceptance without evidence. We don't do that. And I haven't a clue what cosmology has to do with whatever point you're trying to make.
