That is a huge point -

exactly what harm comes from a belief in an eternal Creator to which you will be held to account?

What harm comes from believing that humans are beings created specifically in His image as eternal souls instead of an accident of genetic mutation, no different than animals?

I can't believe that anyone would allow debate on Global Warming. This is settled science. If fact Global Warming should not be taught in the science class, it should be taught in Social Studies so the factual impact of a warmer earth can be studied.

By the way, I'm being sarcastic.

The only thing the Discovery Institute has come up with to try and disprove evolution are some rhetorical shenanigans. IOW, a big pile of steaming B.S.

Selective breeding is a form of intelligent design ... and life is quite obviously susceptible to it. Talk to any dog breeder or your local agricultural researcher.
