You know, preacher. If you want a lot of "amens" during your sermon this is probably not the right thread.

Besides - we aren't discussing whether God should be taught about in public schools, we are discussing whether evolution should be taught in public schools.

Oddly, many evolution supporters seem unable to grasp that concept, and hence keep going off topic.

and the answer is of course - to do otherwise would be irresponsible and a violation of the trust the next generations have in their older generation.

Too bad you choose death over life. If you had faith the size of a mustard seed you would know the truth. You did not get here on your own and you don't know where you are going. God is a good God and created us with a free will. The bible is clear. The Holy Spirit is real and his spirit will live forever.

The Lord is the author of reason.

Comparing your capacity to reason(or anybody's for that matter) with the Lord's capacity to reason is like comparing an electron(people) to the Universe(God).

Nevertheless, we can and do reason.

Some more than others.

Well the creator is legislated out of classrooms.....

And yes evolution is the biological mechanism by which life adapts to its perpetually changing environment. So yes it should be taught in science classes in public schools.

Everyone dies...

The if you had the faith on an electron the Flying Spaghetti Minster would wrap your soul with his noodly appendages and you could float in the holy sea of marinara for eternity!!!

Frickin heathen...

That hasn't been true since post #3.

Probably because it hasn't been true since post #3.

Micro-evolution should be taught, by all means.

Macro-evolution should not be taught, as it is unsupportable.

What is true is true, regardless of the number of times or ways a person has been "born."
