The results! (poor kids brought up with no clue, no hope, no right or wrong etc.)
That's sad.
Oh, not the idea of kids having no clue, hope, or sense of right and wrong. I mean the idea that kids are such brain-dead little snots that they wouldn't be able imagine these concepts once they've learned that populations undergo biological change over time.
Really sad.

Also, I might feel better if evolution was taught as supernatural, as it is a faith based religion of unbelief in God.
I would definitely feel better if Eliza Dushku would come to my apartment and sleep with me right now, as I am the most attractive man in the world, and she is the most attractive woman.
What? We are playing a game of "saying it makes it so", right? Okay then, I am not only going to sleep with Eliza Dushku, I also have ten billion dollars.

Does someone think godly science doesn't understand such things?
I couldn't tell ya. If I run into any gods on the way back from work, I'll be sure to ask them.
You, on the other hand, seem to be a little confused. Read through the threads here. Absorb knowledge. Then, once you understand it, argue it if you still disagree.

Well, people who came to the new land departed from a situation where they could not believe as God them them light to see it. Also in the world's oldest book, where it talks of the future, we can get a good glimpse of how it will be. "All thy children shall be taufgt of the Lord" So I'd say evolution's days are certainly numbered!
I've also got a pony, and an army of killer robots, and a full run of Jack Kirby Fantastic Fours...
Wow, this game is fun!

Re: theories and convincing

How would you feel if I forced your children if you had any, or say a neighbor'skids to study marxism, or Buddism, or any such thing? You probably don't feel it is a religion either, many do!
So... just to be clear, are you now saying that Marxism is a religion?
If so, perhaps you could enlighten us with your definition of the word religion. You seem to be operating from a different dictionary than the rest of us.

So, back to the topic, I don't want it forced on public schools.
And me, I still want to have sex with Eliza Dushku.
We'll see who gets lucky first, huh?

Re: the photocopy!

I think the evolution thing I outlined. And challenged someone to show how it isn't.
I challenge you to show that there are no invisible, intangible half-an-inch-tall baboons living inside your rectum.
I say they're there. Prove they aren't.

Re: Your ancestors seem to be everywhere!
So, you can't prove there are no baboons in your rectum.
So we can all work under the assumption that there are in fact baboons in your rectum.
