What a pant load

[wendy1946]

The way the question is usually phrased is this: "Should religion be put on an equal footing with evolution in public schools?"

The correct answer is "Only if the religion you choose is the RIGHT one."

In other words, to have an apples/apples comparison, you'd need a religion which operated on an intellectual level similar to that of evolution, and the only two plausible candidates would be Rastafari and Voodoo.

In fact, Rastafari would lend itself rather admirably to certain kinds of team teaching situations in public schools: a teacher looking for a way to put 30 teenagers into the proper frame of mind for indoctrination into an essentially brain-dead ideological doctrine like evolution could then walk across the hall to the Rasta class for a box of spliffs...

"At best evolution is a theory, a “guess” about the origin of life"

False. That's what evolutionISM is. Google it.

"At best evolution is a theory, a “guess”

And, at most, all religion is hypothesis

BTW, A Theory is not a "guess", it's a developed framework for experimentation and testing. I can explain that for you but the problem is I can't understand it for you.

[tacticalogic]

Yet anohter implicit assertion that it is impossible for life to have been designed with the ability to evolve.

Intelligent Design and Evolution are presented as mutually exclusive and contradictory theories.

WHY?

[Hank Kerchief]

“In this country, evolution is taught in elementary schools as science. The only one’s in this country who object to that are conservative Christians, who are put down as anti-science.

“The arguments of the “pro-science” (mostly global-warming environmentalist type academic) zealots are absurd. Even if there were any science in evolution, teaching it in grade school is tantamount to teaching the Calculus to third graders who have not learned long division yet. First teach them some physics, some chemistry, some biology, some organic chemistry, cell biology, and genetics; then, perhaps, they will be ready to learn about evolution, but would probably know enough by then to see that it is all bunk.”

We are about to see just how well that ‘scientific methodology’ is going to work out for US. The ‘secularist’ using their ‘social justice gospel’ are now in control and we shall all that ‘survive’ get to see first hand how long their methodology last before it becomes a big steaming heap of misery.... The hair pullers and dirt worshipers of globull warming fame was hatched out of the same so called scientific methodology as the TOE’ers... Time is marching on and we shall see who has the intelligence on their side.
