Why would we waste our time and money on such a course when we know we will be fed evolution. How many creation seminars have you attended? How many creation led studies have you been a part of? How many times have you red the bible?
I think it's hilarious that you would even attempt to use this argument as proof that people who "buy into" evolution are wrong, misinformed, or uneducated. I say this because I spent my entire childhood and part of my early adulthood elbows-deep in Christianity and the Bible. I've heard every key verse there is. I've read the Bible all the way through with my family once and another time as part of a year-long Bible study. I've spouted the same creationist nonsense as you are here. I've actually recited the "Darwin recanted his theories" lie word for word.
How many scientific journals have you read? How many lectures have you attended? How many textbooks have you taught from? Apply the logic to yourself, sister.
Perhaps you are just as uneducated in the things of God as we are in the things of evolution?
One of the tenets of your belief system is that you can never know the mind of God. God is mysterious; He does things on His own time, for His own purposes. How then can you even posit that one could be as educated in the "things of God" as they could be in the evidence and testable hypotheses of evolution? How very arrogant of you to position yourself as some sort of "God expert!"
And you can say this because you are completely unbiased? And does your PhD makes you incapable of error?
Does your ownership of a Bible make you infallible? I own a couple of Bibles too, you know.
I'm married to an engineer and after 17 years, he has realized that logic is the only means by which we can learn.
So then, he's put aside the faulty religious concepts in favor of sound science and logic? Good for him!
I would argue that you are guilty of the same, having little interest in understanding the things of the bible.
Again, you're showing arrogance in assuming that we haven't done our research when it is you who openly states your unwillingness to even give it a perfunctory glance.
You are free to feel that way, so am I. But you are not free to indoctrinate my children and my family and the children and families of other believers in God with your insistance that your theories are fact.
Whose goal is it to indoctrinate? Wow, that gets a
huge facepalm from me.
Excuse me --- is this a picture, a drawing, or a painting?
I usually go by artists' renditions.
What are you saying? That if it's a drawing or a painting, then you're going to believe it wholeheartedly? Did you think your quote from the EA thread wouldn't count in this one? What's that you like to say? "
PWNED!"
That little Haeckel drawing doesn't fool me one bit.
Wait...what? You said you like drawings! Now I'm confused...:o
Yes, absolutely. Better to keep the flock in line if you convince them that thinking is bad.
