The Big Bang and Evolution take at least as much faith to believe as Creationism and Intelligent Design do. Why do folks get so upset when people feel that exposure to all the theories is recommended? Doesn't science require a full look at all the information/possibilities available? If you want to prove one, it seems it would be healthy to try to disprove alternates; how can you do that if you don't even allow a look at the alternates?
"The Big Bang and Evolution take at least as much faith to believe as Creationism and Intelligent Design do. ..."
They only take faith if you have not studied the science behind them.
The Big Bang and Evolution take at least as much faith to believe as Creationism and Intelligent Design do.Only if you are ignorant of science.
Why do folks get so upset when people feel that exposure to all the theories is recommended?ID/Creationism isn't a theory, it is religious dogma.
Doesn't science require a full look at all the information/possibilities available?No, we don't examine the "possibility" that gravity is caused by pixies or angels pushing things around.
If you want to prove one, it seems it would be healthy to try to disprove alternates; how can you do that if you don't even allow a look at the alternates?You can't prove one thing by disproving another, because they both might be wrong. Besides the scientific evidence proves that the fairy story in Genesis is just that, but it hasn't stopped creationists from believing it.
Because there is enough hard evidence elevating the big bang and evolution to the status of "theory". However, there is none for creationism and ID. So they cannot be competing theories.
