Anyone else notice that Dave completely avoided the 6000 year old earth question?

Nobody wants to admit they really believe the universe was created around the same time the Egyptians were brewing beer.

I've gathered from the God thread some people are just happy in their beliefs, no matter how little sense they make. It is what it is.

Amazingly you posted this today

Do you still want to question the integrity of mods on VN after this?

This is why I could never be a Mod on here. I would end up breaking my monitor at least once a month.

Bless you PJ, bless you.

I mean, is this taught in Sunday School?

The sheer numbers of people who profess to understand evolution - and are so wrong. It's remarkable.

Sort of; it's apologetics that is actually taught in a lot of conservative churches. They rely heavily on websites like Answers in Genesis and guys like Ray Comfort.

Every body wants to bash but I can't get a couple questions answered.

1. Where/what did we evolve from?

2. If we're preaching education, why is still taught that the Americas were populated by the Bering strait and that Columbus discovered America?

If you truly want the answer, then I suggest go buy a book or research online; there's tons of resources at your disposal. If you're looking for some quick one sentance answer, you're not going to get it, because evolution isn't some quick and easy magic.

The simpliest answer I can give that will no doubt lead to more questions (and rightfully so) is the monkeys you see today and us both evolved from a common ancestor.

As for your second question, you'll have to ask whoever is teaching it. I was taught in middle school the truth of Columbus so I don't know what schools you're talking about.

There is no hard proof of that which is indeed why it is a theory right? But just out of curiosity, who is you were taught who discovered America?

My wife, kids and I are going to take a page out of the Creation Museums treasure trove of knowledge and set out to St. Thomas on a pine log for vacation this year.

What could go wrong?

Wow. Never heard anything like that before. Surely they are joking...right?

There are mountains of evidence. Not sure what you mean by "proof". If ToE is indeed "proved" to be wrong then whoever does it has a Nobel heading his way. Mother Nature would have a lot of explaining to do and the alternate theory would have to account for all of it.

It's a theory because there are still questions and unknowns on specific mechanisms involved, but the overall theory premises are about as solid as it gets as far as scientific theories are involved.

That's all I'm saying on the matter, and please don't take my word for it, go learn and see for yourself.

Now Walker won't say he believes in evolution.

Carson compares homosexuality to bestiality. Huckabee compares it to alcoholism.
Paul and Christie criticize vaccinations.

Sitting chief judges say they will ignore the Supreme Court if it authorizes gay marriage and knocks down state laws to the contrary as violative of the 14th Amendment.

The GOP leadership is a bunch of religious wackos. They have become the Christian Taliban.

LOL. how do you respond to such ignorance.

the fact is, your communist party is the party of bigotry, envy and sodomy. I would say it kill you when someone calls you out on your pagan life.

LOL, evolution isn't science son. you can't use the scientific definition to prove evolution.

you can't observe something coming from nothing. which it is impossible.

as for man coming from apes, you could probably volunteer yourself to science. i'd say you haven't evolved mercy. who know a fool on volnation is the missing link.

you could change your name to Piltdown boy.

Maybe you should learn the difference between evolution and abiogenesis.

And please, give us your scientific alternative explanation to evolution. I'll sit back and listen.

you evolutionists have no proof, only theories. you have no scientific facts that has proven evolution. you guys have as much faith about evolution as I have creation.

Yet you assume it is a fact. you guys teach it in school as a fact when it is far from it.

I know that creation has not been scientifically proven as with evolution but the evidence of a designer is overwhelming.

how you evolutionist can say that something came from nothing and that something eventually, through random events, created some of the most complex systems in our bodies (DNA, protein chains, etc... is just silly)

it's like if I took a bunch of parts, threw them around and over time the space shuttle was created, and randomly, every safety feature on the space shuttle fit perfectly.

silly silly silly. laughably silly

As you do not understand science, evidence, or fact and logic, I would imagine you are on some GOP short lists for VP.
