I dont remember Last Thursdayism, but I do remember the
Moody Bible Institute film talking about God creating the
Earth. I hope you aren't offended that I saw such a film in 9th grade Biology, but we just weren't so broad-minded
as to blindly believe in evolution. Hey do you preach global warming, too?

No one expects you to blindly believe in evolution. If this is the way it was taught to you in biology class then I'm really sorry but this isn't the fault of the Theory of Evolution but rather the quality of your biology lessons.

What I have observed during all these years that I've been active in this debate is that most people who do not accept the ToE have often a completely distorted conception thereof which becomes obvious when they present a ridiculously cartoonish version.
The problem however is, that they still cling to their misconceptions even after they get corrected by other more knowledgeable posters.

No, why, do you?

So you were told about the theory of evolution and Christian-centered Biblical creationism. That's not "all sides". That's the prevailing scientific theory regarding the diversity of life on earth and one religious creation story out of literally thousands.

I hope you aren't offended that I saw such a film in 9th grade Biology, but we just weren't so broad-minded as to blindly believe in evolution.

Neither were students where I went to high school, but our biology instructor knew better than to dishonestly put a scientific theory like evolution as being equal in merit to one religious creation story (out of thousands).
