yes, micro evolution happened and is happening...not macro as in the theory of evolution. There are so many holes in the theory that alot of reputable scientists are active in debunking it. I aggree with the idea that Hitler was encouraged by the theory as it was designed to oppose a moral and self-restrictive conscience. When you falsely teach that we came from monkeys it tends to activate the darker desires that we all have. It's really sad that kids are not allowed to be taught the creation theory in public schools and its many fascinating points under the delusion that it is not science.

Do you have any evidence that Creationism is science?

Do expand on this. I'm interested in what dark desires you think we all have.

How about this one?

Crow Creation Story

In the beginning, Old Man Coyote stood alone with water surrounding him. Two ducks swam by, and Coyote asked if they had seen anyone else. The ducks said no but thought that something might exist under the water.

Coyote asked if they would travel underwater for him and report on what they saw. The ducks did as they were asked, finding nothing. He asked again, and the ducks returned with a root. On the third try, they found mud and Coyote was happy. He told the ducks that they could build with it, and he began to shape and mold the mud into an island. He blew on it, and it expanded. He blew again, and it grew into the earth. The ducks said they did not like the earth's emptiness, so Coyote created grass and trees out of the roots that came from the water.

Coyote and the ducks loved the earth, but it was flat. They wanted rivers, valleys, mountains, and lakes. So it was done. Soon Coyote and the ducks made a perfect earth, but they grew lonely, with only the three of them to sit and enjoy the land. So Coyote molded dirt to form men and then more mud to create many types of male ducks. Soon, they realized that without women, the males could not have children. So with more dirt he made women and female ducks to populate the earth.

One day Old Man Coyote traveled upon the land and was surprised to find another Coyote. When asked where he came from, the younger brother, named Shirape, said he was unsure of his origin and only knew he existed. As the two traveled along, Shirape wanted Old Man Coyote to make other animals, for only ducks, humans, and the two Coyotes had been created. The elder Coyote agreed, and as he spoke the new animals' names, they were created. He said "Elk" and an elk appeared. He said "Bear" and a bear appeared. This is how it was until all animals were created.

Certainly.

Wrong. Macroevolution has been observed directly (observed speciation) and in the fossil record.

There are so many holes in the theory

Not really.

I aggree with the idea that Hitler was encouraged by the theory

I don't think so.

as it was designed to oppose a moral and self-restrictive conscience.

Evolution is a scientific theory, not a philosophical viewpoint.

When you falsely teach that we came from monkeys

Humans and modern apes share common ancestors; besides, humans are classified as apes.

it tends to activate the darker desires that we all have.

Not really since evolution is a scientific topic, not a philosophical one.

It's really sad that kids are not allowed to be taught the creation theory in public schools

Because it's not science.

and its many fascinating points under the delusion that it is not science.

Possibly the only deluded ones here are the creationists.

Name them. There have been a handful of scientists (almost all NOT in the physical sciences) who have taken the silly ID on, but please produce a list of reputable life scientists who are "debunking" it. For extra credit you can tell how they are "debunking" it since there is no scientific alternative that explains the evidence.

I aggree with the idea that Hitler was encouraged by the theory as it was designed to oppose a moral and self-restrictive conscience.

Please show any publication, anywhere before Hitler's regime that states TToE was "designed to oppose a moral and self-restrictive conscience." TToE was designed as a result of evaluating available data. It has strengthened significantly over the years and more and more data have become available.

When you falsely teach that we came from monkeys it tends to activate the darker desires that we all have.

TToE doesn't say we came from monkeys and your statement is a non-sequiteur anyway.

It's really sad that kids are not allowed to be taught the creation theory in public schools and its many fascinating points under the delusion that it is not science.

Which one? And under what possible circumstance could ANY Creation story (including Genesis) be seen as science?

Posters correct you, you say nothing.

You don't argue your points.

And you'll come to the next thread and again misconstrue the ToE.

Well, it is a theory, but in your case I believe that It must be fact.
