LHM, by way of a trivia question:
Who did Jesus say sick people needed?
Uh-huh.But I'm surprised why Jesus didn't call in an infectious disease consult...
Uh-huh.
I'll bet you are.
Here's the fraction of money that goes to fundraising and to their work for three major charities I picked off the top of my head:By law they are allowed to keep 85% of the money to cover the cost of raising money. I hate that. I will give $20 to what looks like a good cause. Then they start sending me junk mail every month. Spending my money trying to get me to give them more money. I want 100% of my money to go toward helping people and not to fill up my mail box with junk.

Doctors help the people that go to them for help. The church helps the people that go to them for help. Everyone is doing what they can to help the people that are asking them for help. Doctors respect what the church is able to do and the church respects what doctors are able to do. Why do people think that there is a problem when there clearly is no problem and no conflict?A doctor. But I'm surprised why Jesus didn't call in an infectious disease consult with all those lepers.
The problem arises when creationists want to get rid of ToE ans supplant it with creationism. Do that and you will end up in the dark ages. Creationists have tried again and again with lawsuits. So far they have partial success. Also home schooled children are being indoctrinated into hating ToE. The Creation Museum will do more harm to our young by giving them a totally unscientific view of life.Doctors help the people that go to them for help.

I do not really believe in Home Schooling. Because I do not think that they learn the social skills needed to get by in this world. Some people may not have an option though because of the sacrifice involved with sending your children to a private school. Your point is mute though because home schooled children test higher and know "ToE" better then public school children. If you have a problem with the education that our young people are required by the state to receive. Then you need to get involved and do something about it. Perhaps you could start with the PTA. Or volunteer in some other way working with our young people.Also home schooled children

'Evolution' refers to both the fact of evolution (a change in allele frequency over time) and the theory of evolution (the theory that all life is descended from a common ancestor, and variation is due to evolution by natural selection).
So, with that established, what's the best evidence or rationale against one or both?
The best evidence against anything evolution has to offer is that none of these experts can make up their mind which scenario is the more credible. These below cannot both be right but they can both be wrong. This is what should be taught in schools as opposed to the glossy version with no warts.
Because people go to the church for medical problems, eschewing actual medicine for superstitious hocum.Doctors help the people that go to them for help.

I guess astronomy and geology aren't real sciences either.How is evolution different from real science?
One must deny God first or at least revise what He has revealed to us for evolution to be able to grab hold. Real science does not require this. Sure other sciences do not mention God literally but one can still believe exactly what His Word tells us and believe in the science as well.
Evolution does not allow this...
You can not accuse mainstream christianity for the non confirmists and what mainstream christianity clearly does not believe in or endorse. As you atheists love to say that would be a false accusation. Actually if a pastor were to advise against seeking medical advise that could be considered a criminal offense. Although I am not so sure they should advise people to go to doctors either. Doctors are considered to be the third leading cause of death and there are plenty of times they do more harm then good. Either way it is up to the individual to decide if they want to seek medical treatment or not.Because people go to the church for medical problems, eschewing actual medicine for superstitious hocum.
I hope neither you nor any of your beloved ones ever get into a serious life threatening accident! Perhaps if you were to carry with you a card that specifically warned anyone not to give you any medical assistance if you were ever to need any then and only then will I believe you are not being hypocritical!You can not accuse mainstream christianity for the non confirmists and what mainstream christianity clearly does not believe in or endorse.

You could look at: "Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services". If you want to see what the Catholic Church says about this. I am sure they have a well balanced approach.
First of all Evolution is a PROCESS and Science is a TOOL. Science formulated ToE based on empirical evidences in order to explain evolution. There is no mention of God anywhere.How is evolution different from real science?

That is a conversation my wife and I have all the time. I actually do not believe in living wills because the Bible says to choose life. Same with abortion, the Bible says to choose life, not death. Although you are free to make your choice if you want to choose life or death.I hope neither you nor any of your beloved ones ever get into a serious life threatening accident! Perhaps if you were to carry with you a card that specifically warned anyone not to give you any medical assistance if you were ever to need any then and only then will I believe you are not being hypocritical!
When God's Creation contradicts your interpretation of God's word, isn't it more rational to question your interpretation, than what God himself has created?How is evolution different from real science?

On the contrary, science steams ahead with no regard to religious beliefs. Early scientists were Creationists going out to find physical proof of the Flood - and came back believers in an old Earth and a metaphorical Bible.Real science does not require this.
Every science, not just biology, contradicts a literal interpretation of the Bible. Archaeology does not support Exodus. Genetics and geology do not support Noah's Flood. Astronomy does not support geocentrism. Biology does not support rabbits chewing cud, nor grasshoppers having four feet.Sure other sciences do not mention God literally but one can still believe exactly what His Word tells us and believe in the science as well.
Like all other sciences, evolution contradicts a literal interpretation of the Bible - but not a metaphorical one. Singling evolution out is just special pleading.Evolution does not allow this...
