I think that that should read:
Religious Fundamentalism
The arrogant belief that the entire billion-galaxy was created JUST for us.
I agree. I will say this, thought. People like myself, who believes in creation use the same "logic".
I hope I am not over-simplyfiying this, but in short, I personally cannot reconcile that things as organized as our planet and our bodies and DNA (with it's extreme complexity and uniqness) isn't a product of purposeful design.
I once heard (I can't think of the term for these scientists) a scientist say "with out planet, the right distance from the Sun, and the right axis, we should consider ourselves "lucky".
Lucky!??! Really? I can't even get a winning lotto number with luck, let alone a planet and subsequently, human and animal civilization.
That's just me, I guess....

It amuses me that you describe your reasoning as "logic," and then proceed to describe a textbook argument from incredulity.
We are lucky, in comparison with the uncountable masses of those who do not exist, because the planet they were never born on lacks these conditions.I agree. I will say this, thought. People like myself, who believes in creation use the same "logic".

Here we go again.....
If you dislike being repeatedly corrected, kindly cease making ridiculous statements.
The earth didn't pop up suddenly out of chance. It started from small nibblers.......

Crikey! The specimen has been alerted to my presence! He sure does look pissed off! I didn't even need to jam my thumb up his ass!Yes, I'm a bible thumper. I sit at my desk all day an just THUMP, man. It's my natural habitat.
Good gravy you guys can't resist getting vitriolic. All I asked were two basic questions.
If you believe hard enough in Jesus Christ you can run through brick walls.Nope, has nothing to do with that. Aruguing with people like you who lack objectivity and are full of religious hate is akin to trying to run through a brick wall.
I will just peacefully take my leave from this thread now.

You're clearly projecting.Nope, has nothing to do with that. Aruguing with people like you who lack objectivity and are full of religious hate is akin to trying to run through a brick wall.
I wouldn't want to defend your arguments, either.I will just peacefully take my leave from this thread now.
The Universe played the lottery too, and there are many star systems out there with planets that are unsuitable for life. Or many places where stars weren't even formed. Or many many other places where there's only a very tenuous amount of interstellar hydrogen. We are here because this planet happened to have conditions which could lead to life. Interestingly, we are made of compounds that are roughly proportional to what's found on Earth. Now maybe if we were made primarily of iridium and plutonium, with mercury for blood, but it wasn't found anywhere else on the planet in any abundance, then you might have something - though you'd likely not be alive anyway, since you'd probably be unable to continue to survive in such a harsh environment as Earth.I agree.

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 ".

The problem is that there aren't "both sides" in science on this topic, any more than there are "both sides" as far as the shape of the Earth goes - round or flat. Yes, there are some people who believe the Earth is flat. It doesn't matter what they believe, it's know beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are wrong. Ditto the age of the Earth - known beyond the shadow of a doubt not to be just a few thousand years old. Ditto the fossil record.
