"Teaching Creationism is Child Abuse"

Me Myself

Trebuchet,
Let's consider this from another angle.
If you were out in a wild place and came upon a beautiful house, and there was no one around, would you bleieve that no one made the house, that it just happened. If you believeso you could just move in and tell anyone tha you thought it just happened there. How many judges do you think would believe you???
But you believe that all the creation, which is much more complicated than any house, just happened.
You must also believe that a great thinker who comes uo with a copy of something in creation is a great creator, but the creator of the original which is much more sufisticated, much more intricate, than any inferior substitutre that any man can make, just happened. Instead of you telling that to the judge here on earth, waite until you get a chance to tell that to the Almighty Creator.
You know there are many branches of science that are trying to copy nature for the betterment of mankind. Each have come up with an inferior copy, andthey are extolled as great, but the maker of the real thing is not given any credit.

Yet the real maker would need to be infinetely more complex than the house.

Who did it? Who did the maker?

The reason you assume some human made the house, is because you know houses do not spur naturally out of forests, like trees and others. Houses are made by humans.

If you had never seen anything like a house you would have no guess as to from where it came from.

Just becomes some things are made from someones, doesnt mean all is made from a "who"

There is no evidence all comes from a who. It could very well come from a what.

There are several theories that seem to prove that God exists and created all things, Teleology, or Teleological Proof, and Cosmology. or Cosmological Proof, meaning that creation is a proof of God, especially the ordered, Harmonious COSMOS.
Science ignores one of he most basic Laws in nature: An expolsion produces chaos, The greater the explosion the greater the chaos. That proves the Big Bang Theory is not possible.
There is a funny, simple little riddle: Which came first, the chicken or the egg???
Science, for many years tried, both invivo and intitro, to cause life, of any kind. They did make a few anino acids that are part of life, but no life. They gave up!!!
They KNOW that ABIOGENESIS is impossible. There is more of a chasm between the highest form of non-living things, crystals and snowflakes, and the simplest living thing, than there is between an amoeba and a fully developed man. In other words it is much more likely to happen, that a fully developed man pop up from an amoeba in a petrie dish, than for a living thing to happen from even the highest form of non-living matter.
Have you ever heard of HOMOPLASY?? Think about this!!
Homoplasy is the correspondence between two living beings that evolved in parallel, not even knowing that the other one existed, until they could mate and carry on the species. This is the kind of hogwash that science wants people to believe happened in the distant past, but is impossible now. How did these two living beings exist until they were mature enough to use their sexual organs???
Now, listen to what the Bible says about creation. Romans 1:18-25, and be VERY AFRAID!!!
I never did understand why people think making empty threats with their gods is supposed to scare those who do not believe in their god.

Don't get me wrong, I find the empty threats rather comical, but they (the empty threats) only serve to show desperation in the one issuing them.

You do know that 'Big Bang' is a metaphor, right? Not a literal description?
 

InformedIgnorance

Do you 'know' or believe?
A parent (or some other non imposed teaching relationship) that teaches their child creationism can not really be said to be abusive, provided that they are unaware of or do not accept evolution - they are however, unfit to teach. I would suggest that if an (appointed) teacher is ignorant than it is not abuse merely an indictment on the society that allows such the appointment of such a teacher in the first place; an indictment of the society, it's leaders, its voters (in the case of democracy) and relevant authoritative groups (such as teaching unions etc)

FYI, there was no explosion. It was a moment when the universe underwent extremely rapid expansion. Why exactly they call a bang though is odd though, and obviously misleading.

Sexual reproduction came after asexual reproduction, and hermaphrodites were before female and male. And what exactly are your credentials on being able to say "hogwash that science wants people to believe"? Do you have any degrees in biology, have you taken many courses, have you read many articles or watched many documentaries? How many books and articles have you read that were written by real biologist?
Now, listen to what the Bible says about creation. Romans 1:18-25, and be VERY AFRAID!!!
Why would I be afraid of what some old book says? Why should I be afraid of it?

As I said before, it is abuse, but there are way higher forms of abuse.

Thats it. I dont get why people put e word on such a pedestal. If he does something wrong to the kid, that is abuse.
