Nice group of links that none of them will read word one of since they may have their minds opened up a bit. Not much but a bit.

You just got a rep point with all those links.
Roy, I've read those links countless times. I used to be a Creationist. I know their arguments better than most Conservatives.

Our minds our quite open, which is why we dismissed such creationist claims as invalid, because they have been adequately disproven by science.

Do you just accept any claim as factual, because a website says it is?

All your peer researched crap can go with the Global Warmers and their peer researched knowledge. The peers were just some other who got money from the UN for agreeing.

If you hadn't said that as the way truth is arrived at I wouldn't have even answered but those words, peer reviewed, don't fit that proven falsehood they tried to take us with.
And you accuse us of being closed minded? Do you not even realize you're doing the same thing? Dismissing actual science based on some ridiculous conspiracy theory? And then you wonder why people don't take you seriously.

Why don't Medical schools still have debates about whether leeches are an effective treatment.

When did evolution become settled?? Did they find the transitonal forms while I was sleeping?

A snake jumped straight to being a bird?? A monkey to a man???

funny you should mention that, there are doctors in this country that ARE using leaches again in certain circumstances, as well as maggots, to treat certain issues.

That's why you work with local school boards to have intelligence design taught along evolution so children can have an alternative perspective.

Nor should it be, any more than:
Chemistry vs Alchemy, or The Holocaust: Did It Really Happen?, or The Twin Towers: Inside Job?.

Baseless nonsensical drivel completely unsupported by any actual evidence has no place in the classroom.

Quit trying to undermine science education in this country. For those who insist on brainwashing children with complete garbage, we already have thousands of private religious schools who are very well-versed and adept at such things.

Whooosh! Right over your head.

The previous poster was clearly referring to the bygone practice of bloodletting to remove the negative 'humors' from the blood.

Well... I guess you're proof that it is not clear to everyone...

Oh look, someone else who hasn't the foggiest clue what evolution is. A monkey turning to a man would disprove the theory of evolution. Evolution does not say that's possible.

May as well just ask the kids what they want to hear and teach that. Silly muggles.
