“I mean, really, if you want them to accomplish nothing more in life than being a burger flipper at McD’s, then teach them creation instead of evolution.”
The most productive, successful people that I know, all of whom have net worths of 7 figures and at least one of whom has a net worth of 9 figures (a graduate of MIT) are all Christians who would scoff at the idea that man came from a single cell organism through random acts of chance - not just because of their faith - but because of the sheer mathematical impossibility.
I know dozens of home schooled kids, including my third daughter, and none of them are flipping burgers. In fact, my daughter who was home schooled in her elementary years breezed through her public high school as the valedictorian.
Evolution as an explanation for the origin of human life is a joke and anyone who believes it probably believes in man made global warming. It’s a religion - not science.
I have my degree in meteorology, mr. mm is an engineer, my daughter is physics major, son in engineering, and youngest daughter looking at bio, chem, or physics (hasn’t decided which branch yet)
All in the honors programs in their respective colleges.
I did McD’s to put myself through college BEFORE I became a Christian and creationist, although even in my most atheistic/agnostic days, I still had a hard time believing that the variety and complexity of life didn’t have God behind it.
Metmom’s post was tongue in cheek from the point of view of the article. She does not believe in evolution.
