Who cares about creation?

Dawkins, following the current popular evolution vs creation debate, vigorously attacks the 'hypothesis' of a 'superhuman, supernatural intelligence who deliberately designed the universe' (p.31). He notes that he is attacking all religions generally, but Christianity specifically. But his hypothesis doesn't really get the point of Christianity. To quote (albeit from memory) the most famous living philosopher, and staunch atheist, Richard Rorty: "Why do people get so worked up about evolution and creation? The center of the Christian religion is not God the Creator, but Christ the Redeemer."

He said this back in my atheist days, but it stuck with me -- and now, I have to say, it is so true. Christianity's truth isn't in the genesis of the world or of the Bible; it's Gospel.
