But ... but ... didn't they replace Him with good education: like s_x education, where everyone gets a condom and a cucumber; quieting reflex and success imagery; progressive relaxation (hypnosis); and evolution?
Oh ... ya ... I forgot.Nobody committed suicide playing D&D.
They've never tried to hide anything--it's all in their published materials.
God was never removed from the schools. Enforced Protestant Fundamentalist prayer and Bible study were removed from the schools and both the schools and the country as a whole are the better for it.
You think that teaching evolution as science in the public schools is an equivalent infringement of our liberties as a totalitarian dictatorship would be?
When one particular sect's version of it is imposed by the power of the state, yes, that's exactly what it is.Are you referring to biblical values/Gods expectations of us as a totalitarian dictatorship?
BTW, you twisted my point, or just slipped around it...and it still remains, why one and not the other when neither in the mind of the other has been proven?
They might end up getting saved one day.what if other kids in that public school are not of your religion?
For some though, that isnt enough. They need to have their personal faith beliefs in public schools as well and others who dont believe as they do, exposed to them.A Jehovah Witness once explained to me "school is for reading, writing and arithmetic, we will teach religion at home."
Many of them are Christians, and saved already.They might end up getting saved one day.
Yup ... they prioritized.Many of them are Christians, and saved already.
Them days is gawn.A Jehovah Witness once explained to me "school is for reading, writing and arithmetic, we will teach religion at home."
When one particular sect's version of it is imposed by the power of the state, yes, that's exactly what it is.
No, there is a complete lack of equivalency which renders your point moot.
what if other kids in that public school are not of your religion? Would it just be tough luck for them?
Ok, I was asking specifically about the horse series. That is obvious from the picture I posted and the specific questions I asked. Do you or do you not think that the modern horse and zebra evolved from an animal like the Hyracortherium? You refuse to answer. You have evaded and weaved and pretend you are answering. You are not. Sometimes you talk as though Hyracotherium and zebra are so close, they could marry and have children. Other times you speak as though they are completely different "kinds" with no relationship.no. its depend on what creatures we are talking about. if we take the fossils in the tetrapod transition: they are clearly cant prove evolution. so if we are talking about transitions between different creatures, they cant prove evolution. but if we are talking about basically the same creature (wolf vs dog for instance) then its possible that they are a real transitionals fossils.
That goes both ways, what would you suggest? I'm, willing to listen. Surely there is an easy fix for that.
Like Jesus and Paul did?Plenty of opportunity for each person to practice their faith beliefs, in private; church and in their homes.
I just didn't want to risk getting too personal with anyone's particular beliefs. But what about the Roman Catholics? That's a pretty large segment of the student body in most districts. They won't take well to having their children exposed to Evangelical Protestant doctrine and usages.And what is this sects version? See, in order to know if this is a problem I have to know if that version is something radical or if it is pretty much the norm of what people think the bible means. And we just can't hide behind the version or the "that's the way you understand it" thing. I'd have to know if it's a biblical version or not. Just indicating it is not, isn't going to help the argument. actually, if I may, it's kind of a cop out.
I've no idea what you are trying to say.Oh ... ya ... I forgot.
It would give the university a bad reputation, or lower the resale value of a home, wouldn't it?
Instead, let's claim "diminished capacity."
We don't want anyone to get sued, do we?
