Because to do this would show him up for what he is.
I don't care how many people believe creation should be taught along-side of evolution. If it cannot be supported by evidence it is not science.
It is because he doesn't actually know what science is and how it functions in the real world.
You are arguing that the schools should teach whatever the public wants, true or not. This is getting scary.
I agree. It's like teaching Astrology and Alchemy as alternatives to Astronomy and Chemistry because they are popular with the general public. Neither Astrology or Alchemy are vaild sciences, just like crstionism isn't.
Avoiding the issue. Evolutionists do not control education.
I agree.
Yikes.... you're a teacher!!!!
Or he could just be the janitor who cleans the room? That would explain the smell.
No. I am saying that there are no "creation science" entities addressing science matters with science.
Exactly.
Do you mean the challenge to nos482? Yes, I'd like to see that challenge taken up.
I already have. As I've stated these errors and contradictions stand because the vast majority of Christians aren't bible scholars with access to the so-called "original" scrolls and manuscipes in the "Original" Hebrew. All they know is what is told to them out of the current bibles in English. They know nothing of translations and the like. What is in bibles, such as the KJV, is what has been taught to them as being literal and inerrant for many centuries now. The "original" scrolls and manuscripts are irrelevant in this context.
If the bibles were actually the inspired word of their god than there wouldn't have been any translation errors and the like. An all-knowning god would take into account the differing languages as well. What good is the so-called "Good News" if it is so easily distorted? Because there are so many errors, and the like, in the bible proves that it is in fact not the inspired word at all.
