Depends on the quality of education in the said state/nation. Of course having a constitution to protect the rights of minorities helps to. If the populace is educated enough to see propaganda for what it is, then theres hope.

My apologies if I perhaps misjudged you. When I see people like JohnR7 using every logical fallacy in the book, it becomes hard to see a difference between theism and fallacy. How then do you come to the conclusion that the bible is God's word? I ask this because I often find it useless to...

How did you come to that conclusion and was your method logically valid? If you need help understanding what logic is I can give you some study material.

Well that explains Evvveeerrrryyyytttthhhiiinnnggg.

I didn't present any evidence on the topic. I merely quoted Beastt and Flatworm's posts ( as well as giving a link to talk origins). Aron-Ra however, has been kind enough to once again answer your questions and challenges. My post was trying to give you the material needed to educate yourself...

Wrong wrong wrong wrong, wrong wrong wrong wrong. The first four links (as well as the 6th) were all meant to improve your ability to reason, or at least start you off. Talk origins was meant to give you a better understand of evolution ( and science in general). Whenever you have an...

I'm going to give you a few links I've posted in other threads. If you intend to get an introduction to logic and eventually the science of evolution you will follow these links. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deductive_logic...

Human beings define themselves in biological, social, and spiritual terms. Biologically, humans are classified as the species Homo sapiens (Latin for "knowing man"): a bipedal primate belonging to the superfamily of Hominoidea, with all of the apes: chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans, and...

Perfect. Evidence presented once again by the patient educators on this board. :eek: No reply to the previous quotes, instead whenever a creationist is wrong they simply ignore the evidence or run away. Sorry, but the problem isn't human reasoning, it's your reasoning.

This is why we dislike John Bolton so much: http://www.michaelmoore.com/_images/splash/UNbelievable.mov ( ignore the web site, I dislike Moore, but I saw the link to that site on another web site :P). The simple fact is that John Bolton has no diplomatic capability, we need an ambassador that...

Well then, looks like America is the next nation on His list of countries that need a good spanking ;).

Mainly experiance, which I don't have much of. However, the Gensis must be literal or else theology is mainly American. Outside of America not many people accept creation. I mean, just look at this forum, the vast majority of people here accept evolution. It's mainly american theology, the claim...

I suppose that generalization was indeed incorrect. However, what I mean to say is that a vast majority disagree with genesis being literal.

Yes actually, I mean, it isn't contradictig anything science or archeology has to say at all. The thing is, I need to actually learn more about history to better understand the bible. I believe that, though the main message can be understood thanks to the gospels beings so didactic on what...

Haha! lol Theology. You have to understand the position creationists are in. They believe that evolution and archeology are merely God testing their faith, or satan attacking them. Because of this mind set, they will not listen to reason, or any scientific arguments. Therefore, it was...

Oh, yes I was. But now I'm trying to better understand scripture, and this is the conclusion I've come to settle with :thumbsup:. So I suppose I would be considered a TE now :).

Well, just to help you out a bit. Not all christians consider the bible the "word of God". In fact, now where in the bible does it say the bible's the word of God ;). Also, the bible wasn't written all at once, it's a collection of several books/ancient biographies/letters which were later put...

Lol. Sad but true :D.

Erm, is this serious?

Great movie! :D
