You are quite ignorant, Darwin didn’t do it. Decades of tested science, hypothesis, data, testing, observation and results, and published papers. Science builds on testable data, not some words from a religious tome.

Sorry you can’t see that, thankfully, the vast majority does, and keeps the creation nonsense out of the public schools. Don’t like it? Put your kids in some religious school.

That's not true. The majority wants creation and/or ID taught in schools along with evolution. If it were the majority who wanted it, there wouldn't be lawsuits trying to keep it out because the majority would have their way.

The private school option is available to evos as well. Since the majority want creation and ID addressed in schools, the atheist/secular humanist/evo can start their own private schools that prohibit any mention of any deity and send their own kids there.

The option always thrown to creationists as a scrap is just as good an option for the evos. Create your own school promoting your own belief system at your own expense.

Published Papers are works of men, fallible men with egos.

You should go back and look at some of those hundreds of thousands of papers, see what those ideas and concepts they were based upon, look at the biography of the man who made the paper.

I am not for creation per se, I just want all the evo theorys looked at based on their own merits/faults without all the filters placed on the the belief as currently taught.

Regards,

Wrong:

* Only 30% of Republicans believe in "evolution;" 68% do not.
* 61% of independents believe in "evolution;" 37% do not.
* 57% of Democrats believe in "evolution;" 40% do not.

Humans developed, with God guiding

Humans developed, but God had no part in process

God created humans in present form
