"Ham is free to erect monuments to the bible, but public schools are not permitted to expose the children in their charge to religious myths and proselytizing. So, public schools cannot organize trips for students to either the Creation Museum or the Ark Park. Doing so would violate the students’ rights of conscience and the U.S. Constitution."
That's kind of hypocritical that children are not allowed to be exposed to "religious myths" (as if they can actually prove they are "myths"), but children are allowed to be exposed to atheist myths such as evolution (which is proven to be false) and the like, but that doesn't violate student's rights.
You can go visit the Ark any time you please. But not only does it promote a Christian viewpoint, but a very limited fundamentalist viewpoint.
And anybody who says evolution is disproved is just a crank. The body of evidence is overwhelming. Do you get a flu shot every year? The fact that they have developed a new flu vaccine to account for new strains is proof.
No we are humans. There is no other creature on earth like us. Because we are not animals.
Just because some of our population exhibit the intelligence of a rutabaga doesn't mean we are not animals.
Any member of the chordata phylum, which includes humans, are most definitely classified as belonging to the animal kingdom. That's a pretty basic scientific definition.

Can't feed facts to those who think only with emotions.

That's like saying a boat and a car are the same thing because they both have engines.

And it's still a strain. It never becomes something completely 100% different. So no, it's not proof.

Yes, they both have engines that propel them. That makes them both vehicles. Just because a boat goes on water and not on land like the commonly thought of motor vehicle, does not make it not a vehicle. Funny thing, a bicycle does not have an engine yet it is still a vehicle. That's by definition.
Similarly, we are by definition animal and mammal and a chordate. You say we are made in your god's image? You believe this god then drowned everything (except for an olive branch)? And you worship him? That's just plumb crazy!
Can you see why we want to keep our kids away from this kind of indoctrination?

Jeff I am going to take a break from my self imposed exile of not responding to you
If a flu virus ever evolved to something completely different from its parent that would disprove the theory of evolution. Ring species are great examples of how evulotion works, you can barely tell the difference between two adjacent populations but once you come all the way around the ring the first and last populations are so different you can easily tell them apart and they might not be able to interbreed. The child will always be more similar to the parent then different.
Until you understand evolution enough to be know how it works and doesn't work, your claims that it is a lie or that we are stupid to accept it will not be taken with any seriousness.
Or if you do not wish to make an effort to know how evolution actually is claimed to work you can simply state that the theory of evolution contradicts your faith and therefore you choose to reject it. As long as you do neither your proclamations in regards to evulotion are baseless and oft times comes off as sounding silly. But you are not alone, most creationist sites demand evidence for evolution that instead of proving evolution would disprove it. But no one can make that choice for you.
I have made every effort to straightforward honest and civil in this post. You are of corse free to take it in any other manner you so choose. Again your choice.

You can group anything together if you go wide and broad enough. You might as well say humans and insects are the same. We are all living creature. Well guess what, if you kill a bug, that makes you a murder in the insane atheist world. And if you enjoy going to the zoo then you are pro-slavery.

Really, you think the vast majority of the world's population are crazy for having faith? God destroyed the earth because man had grown too wicked. Look what happens when we turn away from God in our day. Our society is falling apart. Policeman used to be highly respected. Now they are shot in the back.

Well you just wasted your time. Evolution is a lie.
