Education about LIFE? while we can!

But creationism is short on facts and long on made-up stuff. We can't teach students the standard creationist mantras, like "no intermediate forms in the fossil record" or "no new species" or "evolution contradicts the second law of thermodynamics", because none of these things are actually true.Moreover, any competent science teacher would know that these things aren't true. A creationist can bloviate on these subjects with a clear conscience, 'cos he knows no better. If we asked science teachers to teach this, we'd be asking them to knowingly lie to children.Furthermore, such teachers would be certain to be found out, since they'd be teaching real science alongside creationist gibble."You know yesterday I said there were no intermediate forms? Well, today we're going to study some of them."

Ooh, you could, you could!* claps hands *And you could explain to them how the germ theory of disease is "just a theory", which means that it's not a fact, which means that belief in germs can only be sustained by blind faith, and that no-one has ever seen a germ, and that when germists say they've seen germs through a microscope, that's just a germist interpretation of what they saw based on their germist dogma, and that the laws of optics are just a germist assumption, and you could selectively quote from the handful of scientists who think HIV doesn't cause AIDS as though they were denying that infections cause disease tout court, and you could recycle arguments from 19th century tracts against smallpox vaccination without bothering to find out that it was in fact successful, and you could say that the immune system contradicts the second law of thermodynamics, and you could tell them that all germists are atheists and will burn in Hell.And then you'd be doing something akin to teaching Creationism alongside real science.Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.

A fair sample.Do they each get equal time with evolution, I wonder?
