Stultis, could you qualify that evidence you’re looking for just a little bit more? If you’ve never read an atheist blogger, a newspaper or a magazine article
hocndoc, MrB said, "And actually, this is the whole point - they are teaching evolution as THE REASON TO NOT NEED A CREATOR."
It's reasonably clear to me that "they" means educators -- science teachers, textbook authors, curriculum planners, etc -- in Texas specifically and/or in general.
So I'm looking for evidence, as I said, that ANY biology curricula or textbook does what MrB wildly claims is the "whole point" of evolution education, i.e. uses evolution to deny God and advance atheism.
I'm sure that you can find bloggers that do this. That's irrelevant. I want curricula or textbooks. Even individual educators advancing atheism via evolution would qualify, PROVED THAT such individuals are not so acting as "loose cannons," but with knowing approval from supervisors, or in harmony with curricula, or something of the like.
Yeah, I’ll rush right out and find a textbook written by a leftist that states that the real goal of teaching evolution is to promote atheism.
We all know how upfront and honest leftists are about their agenda.
Like... Anthropogenic Global Warming is about saving the planet instead of forcing global socialism, wealth redistribution, and the destruction of capitalism.
Like... Motor voter and illegal immigrant driver’s licences are about making sure that illegals know our driving laws and about registering legal people to vote, separately, and not about getting an illegal immigrant voting block for democrats.
Like... Embryonic stem cell research is about finding cures for diseases and not about removing all ethical issues about destroying embryos and abortions.
And the ACLU is concerned about Constitutional freedoms and not just a communist promoting anti-Christian organization.
Yeah, I’ll rush right out and find an example of how the left teaches evolution in order to promote atheism.
I knew you could qualify it a bit more.
The real world is the “loose cannons.” I had them in school (”billions and billions of years ago”).
If you have read the science blogs and journals, you would notice that these are the people teaching our future teachers, and that the thing that motivates them even more than losing funding for research (and much more than a calling to teach) is the chance that someone might infer that we are created.
Evidence for that: their energy is expended on the blogs and they’re not disseminating the facts they’ve discovered. They set up their blogs, research the news and post in order to spend their time and talents cursing God and His believers.
I like to spend my time trying to give them an example of a reasoning, knowledgable believer that they really don’t want to curse. It’s my equivalent of establishing communications. (God bless ‘em, sometimes it’s like one of the science fiction scenarios, with First Contact with an alien being.)
