    So did Jesus so I am in good company.

    If the theory of evolution destroys your faith, than you didn't have particularly strong faith to begin with. I myself even though not religious have suspicions about having been evolved from monkeys but for reasons other than Christians that I'm not going to get into. If it were infact true that genetically our species evolved from some other previous form or another, yeah I don't care...wouldn't give two fucks over it. Has zero impact on my plans when I leave this dump.

    Not my faith. I am speaking of students who have been indoctrinated in our government schools with a theory they teach like a fact. Why can't creationism be taught side by side if neither side can be proved?

    Since when can't evolution be proved?

    I'd be interested to hear what your suspicions were.

    meh too convoluted. Some of it's based on gut spiritual instincts of mine that I've had since I was a little kid. Would be hard to follow is what i'm saying.

    Give it a shot. Right now you're in OBF territory.

    We also didn't evolve from modern day monkeys. Modern day monkeys and us evolved from a common ancestor.

    Since when can it be proved. The Theory of Evolution is not a scientific law or a law of biology. A scientific law must be 100% correct. Failure to meet only one challenge proves the law is wrong. The Theory of Evolution fails many challenges, not simply one.

    Wait what? The Global Temps are currently the highest in history and we have not had a below average year in decades......You or a scientist could argue the level of effect that one aspect has on the the rise in temperatures(such as man made vs natural) but temps are on the raise.

    Prepare for Cal to argue in circles, quoting clearly biased websites as a source for his argument.

    Never. Cal doesn't do that.

    There is a giant, raging debate within the scientific community regarding "mmgw". He knows it! Websites tell him that!

    And if there isn't, that's because those liberal scientists are censoring data! Across the globe!

    Woody does not believe in anything spiritual. He is like a fish in a pond believing nothing exists outside the pond. I don't get upset with him as would I get upset with a blind man trying to judge art? Spiritually blind.

    well, it's a "science" class right? Creationism, at this point in time...is not science. Maybe one day it can be in part who knows .But right now it isn't. Creationism is for religion class.

    Please explain what these "many challenges" are?

    I imagine you'll say "we weren't there! We've never seen a fish start walking! Or a monkey be a man! We never saw it!"

    Which will be especially hilarious when you base your life around fictional stories from the past, passed down secondhand for generations...

    I'm pretty sure you're the one in the pond, ignoring the mountain of evidence contradicting you.

    No, wait, a guy totally lived in a fish. Nvm

    I agree but I would just be happy to see this theory of evolution taught just like that (an unproven theory) it is not proven science.

    A guy way beyond your pay grade also believed that and I will take what Jesus said over what Woody says any day of the week.

    What evidence supports creationism?

    Which fictional story do we teach? (I'm guessing you want you religion's taught...)

    Pay grade? I don't think Jesus would approve.

    Or, you know, fuck what Jesus said because he is way below my pay grade... Based on what you said

    There are many articles. Here is one but you could quickly google search many others. But then you could post your articles on evolution and we could have dueling articles because it is not proven science:

    and that's how it's presented, as a "theory". One that can be turned on it's head at any time. That's actually the scientificmethod at work

    More like 9 Scientific Facts that Prove we still do not 100% fully understand the complex nature of evolution, but does not make it false and still does not make creationism realistic.

    And I don't think I could care less.

    But you brought up pay grade. Either that means you disagree with what Jesus taught or I outrank Jesus because I make more. Your choice.
