Evolution IS intelligent design.
That is to say, parts of evolution theory. To some extent God created and within His creation He designed life in such a way that we would interpret His work as evolution.
The cult of evolution gets way too carried away and presents idiocy like we’re all just great apes.
Origins is where evo-cultists and godless liberal NEA types go completely off the rails.
Jindal is magnitudes brighter than the author and Obama combined.
Republicans only have themselves to thank for systematically alienating every single person in this country who is not white, rich and Christian (evangelical preferred).Actually, if you put all the non-white, non-rich, and non-Christian people in one group, I think you'd get at most 20% of the population. OK, maybe 25%.
If the left thinks that it is going to stay in power by positioning itself as the party opposed to 75% of the country, well, let's just see how that works out for them in the next few years. Obama may be black, but that doesn't mean that "black people won the election." Obama won the election because a lot of white people voted for him in addition to nearly all blacks who voted.
I hope this comment is an indication that the left is going to spiral into a frenzy of identity politics because if it does, the "age of Obama" won't last more than four years (and less if you count them losing Congress in 2010).
Precisely.
Moreover, they have to sue people to be silent to get their version of science enforced. As if only atheists get to decide what is or isn’t science.
They’re not about the scientists deciding science, but liberal activist judges, godless liberal NEA types, etc.
These scientists from MIT, Johns Hopkins, Princeton etc. disagree with the cult of evoltuion and DO offer scientific alternatives but the cultists scream idiocy like ‘theocracy and burnings at the stake’ everytime they’re even mentioned.

Funny thing is, when you click on “scientists” you don’t see anything remotely “religious” in their scientifc views.
They hate God, successful business, self responsibility, accountability, and the foundations of this nation
I fear the upcoming 4 years very much. We have to have to win back Congress in 2010
You would have never ever seen this tripe in USNWR which was conservative once upon a time
this reflects Mort Zuckerman's stewardship to a tee
I hate to rain on your parade, but what about Obama voters? I would say that blissful ignorance is prerequisite for casting a vote in his direction :)
Obama won for a whole host of reasons, but mainly because the press did not investigate him because they wanted him elected, and because he was more articulate and energetic than old McCain, who excited no one, and Obama promised the middle class tax breaks just like Clinton did. But just as Clinton did Obama will reneg on those promises once in office. That $250,000 ceiling will be down to $42,000 by the time he’s done with it.
Then Republicans should NEVER stop calling him on it, that he broke his promise. Republicans didn’t hold Clinton responsible for his broken promise, but I hope they learn that they need to do so this time!
No, I’m just a believer in the word of God … I have never forced my ideas on anyone. I believe the Bible literally, and that is good enough for me. Consider me a fool, as most would in the world today, so be it … Jesus knows my heart.
These very same liberals have infiltrated this board claiming that somehow to side with the godless liberal fascist NEA is the conservative position.
What's truly comical is they make claims like they're Conservative and that they actually think we don't know exactly who they are!
I have to admit that the GOP is at a severe disadvantage if its leaders continue to be belligerent towards evolution. The Biblical creation account is perfectly compatible with evolution, and we don’t have to allegorize/mythologize the Bible to do it. Just accept the Genesis account for what it is: a Sportscenter highlight given to Moses in a vision. All the details are simplified and the timing is compressed, but the facts are still dead-on accurate (when you account for language difficulties). Nor do we need to compromise on the theological significance of Genesis: e.g. Adam was literally created by God from dust, and he and his wife sinned and ruined the relationship with God that originally existed. Naturalistic evolution does not conflict with any of this.
And unfortunately, intelligent design is not much different from creationism. It is philosophy, which is fine and can be taught as such, but it isn’t science and shouldn’t be taught in school. However, I will admit that it is irritating for teachers to promote their philosophy (atheism) when they teach evolution, but I’m not sure how to handle that.
There was another thing I realized after I posted that: Jindal's parents are immigrants from India, making him one of those non-white people that are supposedly all Democrats. The guy who posted this comment is an idiot... I guess I didn't need to point that out. :)
BTW, even though I am an evangelical Christian who belives in evolution (and doesn’t want ID taught in science class), I do believe the magnitude, threat, and cause of global warming is being manipulated and exaggerated in order to push a radical leftist political agenda.
Obviously, the propaganda message is orchestrated from on high
Actually, the propaganda message is orchestrated from deep below...

I actually posted a vanity thread on your point during the election. On my small website, I get maybe say, 200 hits a day. But, any time I posted a thread on FR during the election, I'd get hundreds in a matter of 15 minutes, and say 1500 through the course of the thread----and I know the overwhelming majority of those hits weren't from regular Freepers, because you know as well as I, only a few Freepers hit on a local blog.
I know Freepers are aware the Storm Troopers lurk, but I don't think they know the extent. -:)
You can spot them pretty quick.
They’ll contort themselves into pretzels defending:
ACLU
NEA
gay marriage
and they’re just ate up with BDS, PDS...
oh yeah...all things Christian, separation of church and state madness...IGWT on coins...and on and on and on.
“How can he equate ancient creation myths with the hard facts of physics and biology”
How can he equate physics and biology myths with the hard facts of ancient creation?
It depends upon your religion.
OK. So where did the something come from? (Whose something was it?) And what/who caused it to go bang?
You credit Satan with entirely too much wit. Guy’s a thug. He don’t need no books!
