Please provide a comment, JSML. What are your thoughts?
Darwin was right. If we ever found anything that was irreducibly complex, it would prove that life was created.
And, DNA is irreducibly complex. They cannot even come up with any reasonable theories about how it could have evolved.
Darwinian evolution is the poster child of pseudoscience.
What? Got a problem with natural selection?
Never mess with anyone with 10 hands who can launch 10 weapons simultaneously at you đ
How someone perverted Darwin’s Natural selection theory into “evolution” is beyond me. God created life. How HE did it is a good question, but we and all life on earth are not some random event that just happened because some elements started to react in a random fashion in a pool of water.
I earned an A- in statistics. I can tell you the odds of us being here as a random natural occurrence are Zero.
Science is “how”, religion is “why”.
âEvolution is perhaps the most important part of biology that all educated citizens should be aware of,â
I’d say that recent events have proven that is wrong. The fact that humans are grouped into immutable sexes, called “man” and “woman”, and of which there are only 2 categories, is a much more relevant and important part of biology that educated citizens need to be aware of.
Once teachers show us they can do that job correctly, then maybe they can make the argument that they have spare time to spend on evolution.
Be serious.
Give a herd of elk 100,000 generations to naturally select, and what will they be? A herd of elk.
Natural selection simply wipes out the slow antelopes. It doesn’t modify DNA.
Exactly. I don’t believe in evolution. But apart from basic belief, I don’t see it as essential for a High School student to know. There are other things that a young person has a more immediate need to know — and school seem to teach those things poorly. Adding concepts of speciation, genetic drift, natural selection, and descent from a common ancestor just doesn’t like essential knowledge for young people as they go out into the world.
Hey, if a kid likes biology, wants to go to college and study biology, then by all means go ahead and teach them: “Our best guess as to how the variety of life came about is explained by this concept known as the Theory of Evolution ...”. But to approach this topic with kids at a young age is pure political propaganda, in my opinion.
Well said.
Evolution is a hypothes that cannot be tested, not a proven fact.
“Darwin was right. If we ever found anything that was irreducibly complex, it would prove that life was created.”
As most anti-Darwinians, you confuse evolution with creation.
Even Darwin himself did not believe in Darwinian evolution. Natural Selection does not prove the origin of the species.
It should be taught as a theory, but not the only theory.
A few people beat me to it. I agree with posts 3, 4, 9, 10, and 11.
According to Richard Dawkins, âDarwin made it possible to be an intellectually fulfilled atheist.â Atheists need evolution. Atheists demand that we all believe in evolution. Atheists insist that everyone be taught evolution. That’s what this is all about. Not science.
Evolution is made possible by DNA. DNA is the part that did not arise spontaneously. It is not reducible to minor parts.
DNA was created and life evolved because of it.
I just remembered a joke I heard: there is no theory of evolution, only a list of creatures Chuck Norris has allowed to live!
Sorry but it is just a theory without any factual evidence to back it up. Just wishing and hoping
