So far you've come up with about a dozen different ways of telling people they are wrong and approximately zero ways of proving it.
It is a settled issue. I am not going to re-teach what is already accepted by all educatied people.
Where is the evidence of creationism. I'll tell you where, nowhere. None. See my post about double standards a ways back.
You guys state that because science has only 90% of the facts, it has nothing, while you, with nothing, have the facts.
It is a joke that in 2013 that anyone would even have to engage in this debate. What's next, are you going to deny the exisance of gravity, or fire, or magnetism.
Enough of your mindless sky-daddy drivel. Kids deserve an education, not mindless, dogmatic indoctrination. Of course you teach biology, including evolution, and you ignore the luddites who say it isn't so cause their sky-daddy book,, written by uneducated rubes thousands of years ago, said so.
Yes, mankind of 500 years ago was much shorter and had far better eyesight.
Mankind five hundred years ago had inadequate nutrition compared to today, even in our era of junk food, which is filled with horrible stuff.
You can see the affects of malnutrition in Africa today. It results in individuals being significantly shorter than they would have been given adequate nutrition during formative years.
The dog kind on the ark, once released, had all the genetic material within its DNA for every dog on this planet today. This kind was likely a very medium compliment of the range of traits for each type of gene. Natural selection selected those traits according to environment where the dogs spread out. Hence, the different wild dogs came about.
Man simply made use of artificial selection and selected the traits already found within dogs from the original dog kind. No new genetic information was created. It was simply selected for by people. It's why we have the dogs we have today. While most domesticated dogs descend from the wolf, not all do. Some species come from other wild dog species.
Natural selection, artificial selection, whatever---this is evolution. To evolve means to change. The theory of evolution is simply an assertion that life forms change over time, and that certain mechanisms operate to effect those changes.
Since this does not and has bever occurred, what you are advocating for is feeding children misinformation.
Even the Institute for Creation Research was compelled to admit more than 20 years ago that speciation does occur, and that it has been observed both in the laboratory and field.
In fact, their own leading theory of creationist taxonomy depends on a vast amount of speciation. It is specifically the only way they have been able to get all the animals on Noah's Ark.
The layers of sediment laid down around the globe is likely the result of the Genesis Flood.
The fossils of the dinosaurs within said sediment is likely the mineral replacement of the dinosaurs that perished during the Genesis flood, some four thousand or so years ago. The dinosaurs that did not perish, as they were aboard the ark (likely juveniles given the size), when released likely died out as a result of the ice age and its effects.
