"Debunk Creation", What Creation?
I don't know a kid in my school who has ever questioned Evolution, or even thought about it as more or less then truth. People protest ID in schools, that's funny. Why eliminate it because of disagreement? I don't see a reason why it would harm the student body. Rather open new ways of thinking. As long as it isn't one-sided. This message has been edited by prophex, 03-20-2005 08:00 PM Social Darwinism enjoyed widespread popularity in some European circles, particularly among ruling elites during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. During this period the global recession of the 1870s encouraged a view of the world which saw societies or nations in competition with one another for survival in a hostile world. This attitude encouraged increasing militarization and the division of the world into colonial spheres of influence. The interpretation of social Darwinism of the time emphasized competition between species and races rather than cooperation.

Because of "the holocaust" having happened not too long ago, a world war, and a lot of evidence, It's taught that it actually happened.
ID is just an alternative to a sketchy history. You forget that students sort of forget to question things in school. They start to think that whatever a teacher says is truth, and questioning it is a waste of time. They become desensitized. This would be abolished if some things were questioned for them, or rather another opposing view was put into the picture. I've noticed good teachers do this, like my biology teacher. He sort of mutters about certain things that puzzle biologists about evolution. Although ID is far too extreme, looked upon as an equal to Greek or Roman Mythology. When to me it's just the alternative to a dark world of survival, where love and life is completely lost.

quote: This "machine" seems to be sucking people into evolution, look at the majority of public schools. You are right though, although the science of ID really is the last thing on my mind. I don't like this mentality that is given off of evolution, I don't want to be just another pawn in the animal kingdom for nature's wrath. I know of no real evidence scientifically for ID. That doesn't bother me. Social Darwinism enjoyed widespread popularity in some European circles, particularly among ruling elites during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

quote: I realize the evidence is in evolution, but I also realize that people accept it as truth without question. In any situation this really isn't good.
quote: A better model would be one that does not give humans ideas of survival, working against, and trying to get on top of one another. Lives of competition.

quote: Humans are corrupt. Isolating religious groups from this competition really doesn't mean much to me, people will always have this, unless they can somehow can seperate from this world of materialistic competition. That is our need.
quote: I respect it as a science, but when applied to humans it becomes very ugly. Man doesn't have to be a part of this mess.

quote: Take ID as an idea, rather than proven science. While you need the evidence, all I want is the idea as an alternative, I believe that this might spark some people to re-think what their teachers tell them with great faith that it is truth. Maybe it wouldn't fit in a classroom dedicated to science, rather a philosophical disscussion after school. Wherever it wouldn't be as bad as Lenny might like to tell you.

quote: If I wasn't a google convert I probably would check it out, but I just told him evc is better. He warded me off with this reply. Thanks for giving me the oppurtunity to leech knowledge off of all you guys.
