Re: This is a thread about what should be taught in school
Despite your personal inability to see all your zombified so called correlations rest on one belief and one belief alone, that you cannot address, let alone prove, you are defeated.

Re: This is a thread about what should be taught in school
Far as I am concerned the absolutely overwhelming evidence in most records of antiquity by mankind of spirits is evidence spirits existed. Since science knows nothing about anything to do with the spiritual, it is sidelined. Get out the dunce cap for science on this issue. Certainly we should not ask science if spirits are real or not. They are truly clueless.

Re: This is a thread about what should be taught in school
The bible says Satan appears as an angel of light. So if some spirit calling himself Gabriel appeared to some guy, I see no problem with that.
If it had actually been Gabriel, we could tell. Every time Gabe came to earth, if I recall, it had to do with announcing the coming of One Person. Jesus.
And that is all religious teaching. If that were to be taught in US public school it would have to be in a comparative religion class with many other religions presented on an equal basis.
It certainly does not belong in any science class nor any history class.

LOL the irony.
You have not established that they are beliefs rather than evidence based conclusions -- your failing, not mine.
You have made claims based on your beliefs alone, and think they are as credible as science. They aren't, and the reason they aren't is the total lack of supporting evidence that you have failed to present.
... you are defeated.
By a failed empty personal fantasy assertion? Somehow I think not.

Re: The atheist biologist issue ...
RAZD u said
"That's hardly a valid reason to throw out the whole field"
Never said i threw out the whole field. In fact I told u that I think the ToE of humans is quite probable. I thought u were more reasonable than that
And Tanypteryx argues "CREATIONIST". Hehehe classic
I'll try again to lay out my points on why Dawkins comes across as suspicious to me from an agnostics perspective
This is the part of the interview in question
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoncJBrrdQ8
1- The atheist position is one of choice not scientific.
2- His written heaps of books and spent hours on lectures exclusively on religion
3- His allowance for possible alien creation while refusing to entertain any possibility of a deity creation
4- His inability to articulate a scientific explanation
5- His admission that we just don't know
Surely u can see how at least one of these points draws suspicion

You are defeated by your inability to show your claims anything more than biased and belief based hooey.

Re: This is a thread about what should be taught in school
Not all that is taught in schools is science. This is news? Even the stuff that is taught as science filled with belief.
There are comparative religions courses for example. They might deal in spirits in some way. For example the spirit that Mohamed spoke to. Nothing to do with natural only limited little science! How about sex ed? History..etc etc? It is not all science.

Records are physical. This is news? You have not a shred of evidence no spirits existed as they claim. Nada. Zip. Squat. Zero.

Informing would be teachers they were actually clueless. In darkness. Ignorant. Liars. Fable mongers...etc.

But you're not "informing" anybody of anything. You're just making a fool of yourself. You have no cogent argument against science, much less any evidence to back up your ranting. And you don't know anything about the Bible either.

Are you daft? The Tooth Fairy is imaginary. Fiction.
