Religious idea forced on classes, court told

"..which mandates that teachers or administrators inform students that Darwinian evolution is "just a theory" with "gaps""

Much like the GAPS in evolutionists heads. Evolution makes as much sense as a junkyard crane randomly trying to put together pieces together with cars parts to make a functioning computer.

Blundering, atheistic boobs. All of em.

If junkyard parts had the habit of mating & producing little junkyard partlets that looked almost exactly like their parents (but a little bit different due to mutations), then you may have a point. But they don't, so you don't.

Since I'm an adult, I won't call you a creationist boob.

All the other ideas are forced on classes, why is this idea so different?? What the hell are they so afraid of? Somebody might believe in god?? Oh the horror.

[whenigettime]

Heavens!!! RELIGION???? Oh my!!! In Public schools??? Horrors!!! CREATION??? I think I'll faint!

[calljack]

I always liked the idea that God made the Big Bang.
Can't really find anything in there for anybody to get upset with. There, I have solved the big question, now can I have fries with that burger??

Actually, most life forms are breathtakingly simple:
mix 2 parts booze, one part of hot air, one part of old money, one cup of ambition, a cup of connections, and a cup of leftism - and you get a kennedy. You do not even need to shake and bake. And the design of this recipe is surely not particularly intelligent, either.

Didn't they do this? Isn't it called the Space Station?

Exactly. Also, they are afraid if they admit that any, no matter how finite, portion of their theory is false the whole wall will come tumbling down like dominoes.

HUGE Troll alert!!!!!

Yesterdays recap.

I suppose it depends on where you live and what time you either end the party or get up for work whether we'll call this the late night or the early morning ping.

Evolution makes as much sense as a junkyard crane...

Does a junkyard crane give birth to and suckle little baby junkyard cranes who grow up to be adult junkyard cranes who then mate and bear little junkyard cranes of their own? If not, then your analogy is a severe display of ignorance that has absolutely nothing to do with the biological process of evolution.

"Oh, but I guess the belief that some guy comes out of nowhere and creates the entire universe makes more sense?

That "some guy" as you so ineptly put it is Father God, and yes it makes all the sense in the world. Amen.

The solution is simple, let each parent pay for their own children's education. Not this "send our money to Washington and get some of it back in a voucher stuff".
If the parent wants their children indoctrinated with this evolution nonsense, let them pay for it just like I had to pay to send my kids to a Christian school.(I had to pay for public schools at the same time).
The poor would have to receive assistance to educate their children through the voucher system.

As opposed to a homosexual agenda idea?

[PatrickHenry]

Thanks. I'm looking for the right thread to ping for today. I'm keeping this down to one per day. If nothing better turns up, it'll be this thread. I'll decide soon.

If the parent wants their children indoctrinated with this evolution nonsense,

Why do you call evolution "nonsense"? Be specific.

Someone has already explained the absurdity of your "junkyard crane" analogy, so I'll call you out on your false association of evolution with atheism. Not all who accept evolution are atheists; I daresay that the majority are not. This means that not only do you not understand evolution (hence your false analogy), but you also don't understand the people who accept it. As such, I do not see why you should be considered qualified to address the subject in any way, shape or form.
