Texas: Put Creationism In Every Textbook!!!

[European Socialist Republic]

Because it leads to religious favouritism and eventually Theocracy?

Why is a Theocracy bad?

Theocracy is great! That's why Iran is the best country in the world!

[Genivaria]

if you want to be lied by the demon and serve him i let you do it atheists but us catholics we arent going to do it

I swear everything you post is hilarious.
You literally have not a fucking clue what you're talking about.

159. Faith and science: "... methodical research in all branches of knowledge, provided it is carried out in a truly scientific manner and does not override moral laws, can never conflict with the faith, because the things of the world and the things of faith derive from the same God. The humble and persevering investigator of the secrets of nature is being led, as it were, by the hand of God in spite of himself, for it is God, the conserver of all things, who made them what they are." (Vatican II GS 36:1) 283. The question about the origins of the world and of man has been the object of many scientific studies which have splendidly enriched our knowledge of the age and dimensions of the cosmos, the development of life-forms and the appearance of man. These discoveries invite us to even greater admiration for the greatness of the Creator, prompting us to give him thanks for all his works and for the understanding and wisdom he gives to scholars and researchers.... 284. The great interest accorded to these studies is strongly stimulated by a question of another order, which goes beyond the proper domain of the natural sciences. It is not only a question of knowing when and how the universe arose physically, or when man appeared, but rather of discovering the meaning of such an origin....

Why you go against your denomination's Catechism?

How can atheists want to serve the demon (you mean the devil?) if they don't believe in demons and devils?

becouse they refuse god ,they help the evil doing so

An odd about of fundies seem to think we serve the devil. It's really hard to serve someone you don't believe in.

[The Nuclear Fist]

No. It really isn't.


I don't know about you guys, but I'd be perfectly fine with Nuclear Fist's version of creationism:

And on the 1st day, Fist pulled himself out of the abyss. He them proceeded to violently sodomize the abyss, and the big bang happened. God came out 9 months later, and Fist taught his son how to create a universe. It was pretty bad for a first try, but it had hookers and blow. So Fist kept it anyway.

Wait... I thought TNF was Azathoth. That isn't how Azathoth did it. Something is wrong here.

Long story short, I'm not the original TNF.

[Pandeeria]

I can't look at each tree, every one different, each plant, each snowflake, each fingerprint, all different and truly think to myself, "This was an accident. All a coincidence." I choose to believe in creationism, because I have enough proof right here. If the State can't educate people on views besides evolution, then the world is in trouble.

The world is always in trouble. And creationism has no evidence.

[Sensorland]

if you want to be lied by the demon and serve him i let you do it atheists but us catholics we arent going to do it

The catholic church has admitted for quite a while now that evolution is real...

Of course it is? But who's to say that what we evolved form wasn't created by a divine being?

[Edlichbury]

I can't look at each tree, every one different, each plant, each snowflake, each fingerprint, all different and truly think to myself, "This was an accident. All a coincidence."

I have proof.

This is the fifth time this list was posted, you'd think that you would have noticed by now.

[The Black Forrest]

Because it leads to religious favouritism and eventually Theocracy?

Why is a Theocracy bad?

Well? What do you think of the Islamic countries?

[Lydenburg]

Sixty years ago, you might have been saying somewhere in the Bible Belt,

"Evolution has no valid evidence. It's pointless and time consuming to teach all these different theories when the correct one is right in front of us."

You see what happens when we talk in absolutes?

The difference being, The Theory of Evolution via Natural Selection is a Scientific Theory, where as creationism/intelligent design is not even a hypothesis.

In today's social context and mindset, quite. I never claimed it doesn't change the facts though.

[Dyakovo]

I can't look at each tree, every one different, each plant, each snowflake, each fingerprint, all different and truly think to myself, "This was an accident. All a coincidence." I choose to believe in creationism, because I have enough proof right here. If the State can't educate people on views besides evolution, then the world is in trouble.

Your feelings are not proof. They aren't even reliable evidence.

[Need a Name]

Why?

Separation of church and state. Once you start breaching that line, you slowly descend into a Theocracy, which even a Christian like you must admit that's bad.

Actually a government ruled by God is very good.

[Genivaria]

How can atheists want to serve the demon (you mean the devil?) if they don't believe in demons and devils?

becouse they refuse god ,they help the evil doing so

Prove that a god exists and we'll talk.

[Republic of Greater America]

Because it leads to religious favouritism and eventually Theocracy?

Why is a Theocracy bad?

Troll is obvious troll. Okay I'll tell you. With theocracies come only dogma, and with dogma, al-Qaeda and their spawn comes out, sooner or later, you have a war-torn country, look at the Middle East. Most of them are theocracies and look what's happening.

[Great Nepal]

I choose to believe in creationism, because I have enough proof right here. If the State can't educate people on views besides evolution, then the world is in trouble.

Fortunately, facts doesn't really care about what you can or can not think to yourself. It goes by scientific method and observation.

[European Socialist Republic]

God is dead. I killed him. Bastard tried to fight back, but I won!

[Edlichbury]

Separation of church and state. Once you start breaching that line, you slowly descend into a Theocracy, which even a Christian like you must admit that's bad.

Actually a government ruled by God is very good.

Thus why the kingdoms of Israel and Judea fell to pagan non-believers.

[Divair]

I can't look at each tree, every one different, each plant, each snowflake, each fingerprint, all different and truly think to myself, "This was an accident. All a coincidence." I choose to believe in creationism, because I have enough proof right here. If the State can't educate people on views besides evolution, then the world is in trouble.

The fallacies.

They're raining out of the sky.

[Dyakovo]

The catholic church has admitted for quite a while now that evolution is real...

Of course it is? But who's to say that what we evolved form wasn't created by a divine being?

There is no evidence to support that.

[Lordieth]

Neither creationism or evolution can be proved or disproved, so why should we not have schools teaching both of the theories? It would be terribly close-minded to take either one of them out of the classroom.

Creationism is not a theory. It's a belief. Theories are based on evidence. Belief belongs in religious text books. Theories belong in science text books.

[Lost heros]

your logical fallacy is.

[Need a Name]

Why is a Theocracy bad?

Well? What do you think of the Islamic countries?

Well it depends on which god.

Why is a Theocracy bad?

Okay I'll tell you. With theocracies come only dogma, and with dogma, al-Qaeda and their spawn comes out, sooner or later, you have a war-torn country, look at the Middle East. Most of them are theocracies and look what's happening.

You might want to edit the part as shown. There is a rule about troll naming.
