It is interesting, don't you think? All the lies and deceit furthered by fundies in connection with some alleged "design" they want introduced into the school system is nothing more than frantic attempts to force christianity.in the school syllabus.
Jerry Falwell and the Christian Taliban.
BTW, my little personal stalker, I'll require you to continue with the gargantuan fonts.
I totally agree,
but where did you go to college? What type of science background do you have?
You know what Hollie? Your hatred only eats away at YOUR insides, and doesn't affect those you hate. You live under the cloud of hurt and unforgiveness. Forgive your parents and those who have wronged you and you will be free. It is your forgiveness of others that will release your hatred, and unload that huge burden of bitterness you have been carrying since your childhood. Your hate only hurts you. Christ said, "This is my commandment. That ye love one another."
You're projecting. Were you abused by a Priest as a youngster? Are you still being abused? Could it be that you have have conflicting feelings about the abuse which is why you allow the abuse to continue?
Your primary objection to this thread and my comments in particular is that you believe criticism of your religious beliefs should not be allowed. In a totalitarian theocracy such as Iran, or other fear societies in the islamist Middle East, the matters discussed within this thread would never see the light of day.
Having a literal belief, such as yours, in a 6000 year old earth, jinn, demons and mankind sharing the planet with dinosaurs actually
is a viable reason to criticize another person or peoples belief system when that other person insists on forcing those beliefs on others or insists that supernaturalism must be part of a public school syllabus. What you are refusing to address is that your insistence that Harun Yahya type creationism be taught in public schools will similarly be met with demands for many other religions to have equal time. I see no valid reason why we in the West should condemn our students in public, state funded schools to the irrelevancies of ancient superstitions. I happen to think it is outrageous to even consider such absurdities as a geocentric model, a flat earth, seven heavens, mountains stopping the earth from shaking, meteors as missiles against jinn and similar absurdities found in creationist dogma. I really see no mechanism to address these concepts as in any way short of being ludicrous.
American companies and firms look for truly analytical minds with the capacity for deductive thought and rationality, and an increasingly technical world demands them. I happen to live within a four hour drive of several of the most respected universities in the world. Guess what; none of them include jinn 101 in their course curriculum. I have no desire to see our education system devolve to the point where we churn out the legions of vacant, Koran addled minds exiting Middle Eastern schools.
I've scolded you once already about the gargantuan fonts. I do require you to use gargantuan fonts.
