That isn't true. People are not taught in secular public schools not to believe or to believe,
Yes they are...to believe in the lies and fables and to reject the truth. THAT is the name of the game.

and again I would like to mention that people can still have their kids hand in permission slips so they don't take lessons on evolution or other topics their parents view to be completely in conflict with their religion.
The whole thing is an evolution trip from grade school till they get enough sense to get out!

No, the earliest time I heard evolution even mentioned was in 7th grade, the name was mentioned, and the instructor told us that we should tell our parents so they know, and can decide if they want us to learn about it. I wouldn't hear of it again until I took AP biology, an optional course.

Please, keep telling people that they have to accept your nonsense in order to believe in the Bible. I can't think of a better way to cause people to deconvert.

Worried about what others believe? If you had real knowledge and science that would not be the case.

Ha. Well, godless stuff is taught all the way through. Maybe you do not remember. Maybe you did not recognize it.

Worried? Only as much as creationists try to spread ignorance into public schools. There is certainly no chance of your nonsense making it past any sane person.

I am done being worried about you. I have realized that you are one of the best advertisements for why someone should not become a christian.

Maybe you are too old to remember what people are and are not taught in school. And I do recall the pledge of allegiance having "under god" added in the 1950s.

Preaching the truth to the captives worries you too? Don't blame you, with stuff like you were taught I would worry too!

God's knowledge will be taught and nothing else one day actually. The outcome is inevitable.

Say it like you mean it. --as I pop a cork and smile-- hey, speaking of a cork...

Please, tell them the "TRUTH" about the time warping fishbowl around the Earth. Tell them that in order to accept the Bible, they have to believe in this magical fishbowl that changes time and space in such a way that it has created a 13+ billion year fake history in the sky.

God's knowledge will be taught and nothing else one day actually. The outcome is inevitable.

Please, tell them that all of this is fishbowl stuff is "God's knowledge". It might also help if you had a sticker on your shirt that says, "Helol, my name is: . . .", and then have GOD scrawled in with crayon. I'm sure that would convert a ton of folks.

The better question is who believes you?
I won't argue that.

Our pastor says anyone will say they have Jesus.

The big question is:

Does Jesus have you?

Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

All that talk about god-so-loving-the-world was just lip service?

Or just realize that dad's version of Christianity isn't in any way authoritative.
