Pathetic...Thanks GOP..and yes, you are too blame...

Indoctrination at its finest.

That came from a Public School?

It also gets the age of the Earth wrong according to the Evolutionist viewpoint.

I can't read the articles linked in the OP's link but it seems they're state sponsored nonpublic schools.

Wow...there are definitely some ignorant people in our world. It's shit like this that morons use to smear Christianity in general. But, as some say, you can't fix stupid.

 

[Orignal Earl]

Is this even newsworthy..?
Did you know a Muslim punched a teacher in Europe?

okay, on one hand, I'd like to know how many schools use that textbook, because the link does little to establish that.

On the second, if the issue is against using state-funds to attend schools which have religious messages, then on what basis are we currently allowing student loans to private colleges? How is this any different than that?

Tax dollars going to fund Christian propaganda? Yup.

 

[blackangst1]

Im going to cautiously say Im not seeing a problem with this. If you read the entire link it explains both sides...which I dont have a problem with.

As far as what schools...I wasnt able to find that...just says "Fifth graders in some state-sponsored schools ".

Why don't you put a little thought into it and answer that yourself?
If it's over you head, perhaps you should move along to a forum that's a little more your speed: http://www.kidzworld.com/forums

at first I didn't think that picture in the OP was that bad...


then I saw the others in the link and was suddenly overcome by a desire to no longer reside on this celestial body.

That actually doesn't look that bad - I think people are taking this out of context. This appears to be a "compare and contrast" reading exercise which asks the student to distinguish which sentence is of Creationist belief or evolutionary theory based on a simple explanation of each. It's not actually teaching them to be equal.

Having successfully laid the trap, let's see how this unfolds.

Here we see our first wild Bible Thumper attracted to the bait. Notice his ability to rationalize just about anything. Fascinating. We really are lucky to get a glimpse of him in his natural habitat.

Overruled !!!

So dinosaurs and man would have lived at the same time. God's word is always accurate. We can trust it to be true even in the areas of science.

 

[Doc Savage Fan]

Comparing creationism to evolution in this way is a convenient strawman for some. What about Theistic Evolution?

 

[Matt1970]

Yep, blame it on the GOP when 41% of Democrats feel the same way and only 19% of Democrats believe God was not involved in evolution.

Lol like flies on shit.

Sad.

My mom made us go to a Vacation Bible School once when we were kids. We were reading the bible and discussing when suddenly, one of the girls wanted to talk about how angry she was that Evolution was being taught in her school. She said her teacher was telling students that Dinosaurs were real but that she didn't believe it because there were no Dinosaurs in the bible...so how could they be real?

What does "God's record of creation and history" mean? I'd be more inclined to agree with you if the text read "A person who views the story of Genesis in the Jewish Torah and Christian Bible as a record of historical fact..."

The first thing that should trouble the casual observer is this was a Gallup poll...We all know how well they did in the last Election.

 

[sunzt]

They capitalized "Creation"... really?? 4th line.
