One of biggest paradigm shifts in origins in recent years is when genetics and morphological studies began to show that Neanderthals and humans werent related. Sure, a lot of Darwin Fundies around here dont know that because they get all of their science from the talking point lists of their Fundamentalist Leaders. So this is probably a big shock too, science is also showing that man is not related to any hominids including apes.
In the groundbreaking book, Who was Adam?, biochemist Fazale Rana examines the scientific research that is overturning Darwinian Fundamentalism. Here, using peer-reviewed research that the Darwin Fundies claim doesnt exist, Rana shows man is unique and designed.
And he details the latest findings on the fossil record, junk DNA, Neanderthals, human and chimp genetics. There's more science here than most Darwin Fundies have ever read, but this will be the next great paradigm shift.
The parallels between Genesis and the latest scientific data are profound... - John A. Bloom, Ph.D., professor of physics, Biola University
On Ranas previous book, Origins of Life:
Evolution has just been dealt its deathblow. After reading Origins of Life, it is clear that evolution could not have occurred. - Richard Smalley, Nobel Laureate, Chemistry, 1996, professor of physics and astronomy, Rice University
Real science by real scientists. According to Darwin Fundies this doesn't exist, but here it is.
That sounds like a fairly defensive response.
The test is over the theory of evolution. Therefore, providing ansers according to what the theory of evolution says is perfectly acceptable, and discriminates against nobody. If the test were over the Bible's presentation of creation, then providing answers according to what the theory of evolution says would be incorrect.
I know of no school that forces students to "renounce" their religious beliefs.
It also doesn't say that the body produces antibodies to fight disease. Not every fact of nature is explicitly stated in the Bible.
I do not know if the Earth was created in six days, nor do I know if one of God's days is the same as one of our days.
But the Bible does say God created humans as humans, doesn't it?
But guessing and assuming is what links most of the E side's arguments together.
Hardly ANYTHING that is claimed has been shown to be possible.
Good luck!
That can't be shown to have happened HERE!
Bye bye Democrats!
They are more subtle than that.
They suggest that they should enroll in Comparative Religions instead.
That, the public schools have confirmed they will never teach. Now it is clear and parents can better decide where/how to educate their kids.
Thanks ACLU, and Happy Winter Solstice!
Forcing students to memorize and regurgitate a Darwinian belief accomplishes the same thing; renouncement of competitive viewpoints.
Public Schools aren't fair & balanced in this regard.
>>>Perhaps the capacity for intellectual growth is a trait, and not an inevitability. For example, Marxists have shown little or no capacity for intellectual growth, merely the mimicry of the outward appearances of such.>>>
LOL!! You know, you have a point...
>>>A soul has no influence on the body?
Soul? What do you mean soul? Science has not PROVEN the existence of a soul, therefore it doesn't exist. Haven't you been paying attention? /sarcasm
Whoa! Testy, testy, testy! It is the Christmas season, you know - try to be a little less aggressive. No, I never heard Carlin say this. In fact, I haven't paid much attention to anything Carlin has said over the years. Your response makes me wonder which creature you evolved from. Merry Christmas!
>>>I assuming that man is the only species that continues to grow intellectually, while other species remain primitive.
Just give 'em time!!!
(Actually, don't admit that you are assuming anything if you wish to be in the Evolutionary court.)>>>
Yes, you are correct I suppose. I need to keep the "just the facts, maam" thing going.
>>>Why do HUMANS and no other creature CONTINUE to grow intellectually, while other species remain just as primitive as they were 1,000,000 years ago?
How do you know? Talked to a porpoise lately?>>>
Why no I haven't. But I also haven't flown in an airplane piloted by a porpoise. Or had surgery performed by a porpoise. You get the idea.
