So then if God sets it up so some people can see (presumably the ones who are religious) and some cannot see (presumably folks like myself who are not.) how can He blame those for which He didn't give the power to see?
Isn't that a set up job?
First a comment, I...and most other people...tune out posts where 47 pages of Bible quotes are cut and pasted. I don't mind a quote here or there if it supports a specific point, but no one gets anything out of multiple paragraphs of cut n paste quotes.
Now, on to the comment. Why would God...
Please provide one single "Creation Science" hypothesis and testing cycle. What tests were done? What were the results? How did the analysis of the results either support or refute the hypothesis?
The scientific method is a specific thing. If you don't follow the scientific method, it is...
That's because it is as good as fact.
It isn't. When I learned about evolution in school there was no mention of abiogenesis at all. It simply isn't part of the standard evolutionary discussion.
Which God should they teach created the world? Yours? Why?
Why Genesis instead of Nyx...
There are no abiogenesis classes. The sciences are biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, etc.
There is a thing called Creation Science because some religious nudnik stuck the word "science" in front of "creation" to get uneducated religious people to believe it has any weight whatsoever...
You made some comment about what a wonderful opportunity it would be for non-Christians to be able to sit quietly and listen to the Christians pray.
If that doesn't highlight the incredible hubris of the Christians on this issue, I don't know what does. What a wonderful opportunity for my...
Than how can you say Christianity is "the cultural religion?"
Maybe they are weak-willed pushovers, too afraid to stand up to religious bullying. Perhaps it's also why in 10 years you'll be the Islamic Republic of Britain, and then maybe you'll wish you realized how important it is to keep...
Don't want it, don't want my kids to be forced to hear it. Don't care what you want, do it at home.
Less and less so every year.
If a private school wished to do so I respect that to, but not a public school. Fine by you, but not by many so why should you win?
Two things on this. First...
LOL, I posted this as a joke three posts above. Though some of the Founding Fathers were technically labeled Christian, their beliefs were nothing like the religious right in America today. Jefferson famously cut out all the superstitious parts of the Bible with a razor, leaving only the...
No! Everyone MUST SIT QUIETLY AND RESPECTFULLY while the Christians bully everyone else into wasting school time on their super special chantings.
Screw doing in on their own time YOU must abide!
This isn't school prayer. Breathing exercises don't establish religion in a public school and practicing gratitude doesn't promote one religion over other religions or no religion.
This is a completely different issue. No issue really, as no one has ever said students shouldn't be able to...
A school is a place to learn school subjects. I don't think anyone would enjoy me coming to church and insisting everyone stop their praying so I could recite the periodic table of elements. Or maybe more accurately, demand that 15 minutes of every church service people sit in silence so I...
