Evil-ution is only a theory. Why is it taught in school?

Question

Nothing can "just exist" without having an origin, that applies to the universe as well. Lie-beral professors tell people that the universe has "always existed" but they ignore all the evidence that points to a divine creator. Nothing can just "always exist" except for God Himself, God has always existed, but not the universe. God is exempt from the normal requirement of a creator, but life and the universe are not.

Supporters of the Intelligent Design Theory have been ridiculed with offensive nicknames like "IDiot" which is a play on the abbreviation of Intelligent Design, "ID". Well, I'm here to say that I'm proud to be an IDiot! Yahweh is a supporter of the Intelligent Design Theory, so I guess that makes Him an "IDiot" too? I've got a t-shirt that says "Proud to be an IDiot" on it, and I wear it proudly.

The theory of evil-ution will destroy all those who come into contact with it. If you are approached by this theory, just walk away, don't attempt to argue or debate.

Answer 1

It is taught in school because it is scientific and we want children to know scientific theories.
Only by keeping an open mind, with respect for truth, can we grow intellectually.

Answer 2

Many things that are taught in schools are "only" theories. When the term "theory" is used in science, it is a well supported idea. In fact, gravity is a theory.
Just because something is controversial doesn't mean it shouldn't be taught in schools. Children should be exposed to many points of views and ideas so that they can make up their own minds-- that is what education is about.
The political debate surrounding this issue is shallow and uniformed about both science and religion. Open minded discussions would be more productive than polarized debate. Your wordplay is neither helpful nor amusing.

Answer 3

I'm not sure what the purpose of this question is given that you have made it quite clear you wish no discussion or debate on the issue.

You claim that everything must have a creator except conveniently God, who has and will always exist. Don't you notice the contradiction in your logic here?

I am glad you are proud to be an idiot, because you truly are one.

Answer 4

I admire your conviction, and I believe in a divine creator as well, but excuse me for saying your logic is faulty. You say nothing can "always exist," and yet you hold that God always existed. By the same token, your detractors can just as easily reason that nothing can be made from nothing.

There are also those who believe in God's original creation, but who ALSO accept the idea of evolution to an extent.

You don't help the case of creationists by being so defensive and by being so offensive to anyone who doesn't hold the same beliefs. Love your neighbor -- including those who believe and teach evolution... and don't be so judgemental that God will judge you more harshly.

Answer 5

Hey, IDiot, intelligent design and evolution are basically the same thing. They both agree on the permutation of living oganisms.

If you believe in intelligent design, then you believe in evolution. It is only the starting point where you diverge from the extremists in evolution. Most people start from the single celled organisms to the myriad of species we see today. Evolution does not attempt to explain how life began, but, rather, how life has changed.

You are asked to subscribe to one of three schools of thought: creationism, evolution, or intelligent design. Just pick one and to Hell with anyone who doesn't believe like you do.

Answer 6

Evolution is a scientific theory like the theory of gravity and the theory of relativity. It is strongly supported by scientific evidence and can be used to make testable predictions. It is taught in schools because is stimulates critical thinking, which is something all children should learn.

Intelligent design is a hypothesis at best. It is easily refuted by evidence and makes no significant predictions. It is not taught in schools because it requires blind faith to believe in. Blind faith is ALWAYS a mistake.

Answer 7

because this world is going down hill and the end times are coming i think pretty soon. The goverment laws used to be based on christain beleifs and now they have takin god out of school and are trying to take in god we trust off from the Our currency. If you read the revelations from the bible it speaks of things in which are already starting to happen. like for example drastic weather changes, more sever storms, crimes, and more and more people not beleiving in god. Scientist will call it clobal warming, but the truth is it is actually a sign that this world is getting worse and worse and that soon every one will know of whitch is happening when God decides to end the world once again.

Answer 8

enable's deliver the spaz meter down about 3 notches ok bud? They emphasize that it really is in ordinary words a theory. nevertheless coach it, yet only for like some instructions which contain biology. organic selection turns into genocidal killing. Wow thank God i have not in any respect met absolutely everyone on those loopy tablets you've been eating. allow you to comprehend what, you bypass out into the wild and placed a hungry wolf next to 2 hare species, and one is speedier than the different at operating. See which one the wolf manages to eat. it really is not genocidal killing it really is merely the animal kingdom attempting to live on and some animals are extra honestly killed, and for this reason eaten, than others.

Answer 9

You want me to believe some invisible guy, who lives in the sky, MADE everything in the entire universe, including CREATE-shunists, and only took 6 days???? And on the 7th, he rested? How did he do that? Did he use a numercal, computer controlled lathe? The definition of "faith" is to actually believe what someone tells you, as truth, just because they say so. It makes intelligent sense to believe scientists, than to believe filthy, vulgar liars, like "CREATE-shunists. You are weak minded, and have a burning need to be told how to live your life

Answer 10

In the scientific community to go from a hypothesis to a theory is the official standard. Something becomes "Law" when it is universally accepted within the community and by the people outside of it. The "Law of Gravity" is so called because the common people and scientist all agree with the theory. There was, coincidentally, a time when it was just refered to as the theory of gravity. The scientific community pretty much has ended the debate on evolution and accepts it (unless scientific data starts to point the other way in tests, which so far it has not). It is the rest of us outside of the scientific community that are still debating it. Thus it cannot be called a law but it is no longer just a hypothesis since there is enough data to move it up in status to a theory.

I don't know any professor in college that I've been to that ever just said that the universe always existed. There's that whole big bang theory, too (even that is debated by those outside the scientific community). I think that it is good that they teach evolution and other theories within the science classroom, especially in college. And as I have discovered: if your major does not include anything that you would need science then most colleges do not force students take science classes. Even though it has been a while since I have been in college, I began my college journey majoring in secondary education with an emphasis on world history, world geography, foreign languages, and world religions. Thus, I never had to take any science classes if I did not want to (and was discouraged by my advisor as science had nothing to do with my major). I will finally be returning to college (it's been about four years) once again next year, finally settling a financial matter with a college and having the resources to attend again. Only I have since had other changes in my life and have thus decided to change my major to pharmacy and thus now I will have to take select science courses.

In high school evolution was discussed in the text books along with the big bang theory, but the science teachers never bothered to really debate the issues in class. As one teacher said "you just need to know this for this class, what you do with this information and whether or not you agree with it is totally up to you." The same was done in most of the classes I took such as history, economics, and US government classes. It was never really a debate in our school. It was well known which students didn't agree with evolution or the big bang theory and their religious rights were no infringed. The teachers did not discourage them away from the theorems they had been taught.

As a practicing Hindu evolution and the big bang theory fall perfectly in line with what Hindu sacred texts discuss. The exceptions being that the universe did not manifest itself out of nothing, but instead the big bang is the sign that everything manifested out of God and evolution is just the physical components going through changes, but the spirit level is eternal and since everything manifests from God directly and everything in the universe thus contains the divine spark of spirit like God in it, then the spirit itself never went through evolution, only the outter physical elements like rocks, starts, bodies, animals, plants, etc. And it is prana (life force) that seperates some spirit things from others. Prana does not exist in all things that is why we sometimes do not realize that the divine spark is in all things. (spirit, of course, is not scientifically proven and thus the scientific community cannot confirm what Hindus or any other religion has to say on that subject and Hindus don't expect scientists to, afterall one can discover spirit themselves if they turn their awareness inward towards their inner Self and experience spirit that way).

Science is wonderful and it has helped with the inventions of countless procedures, machines, and so on. However, I see no reason for science to get involved in the realm of the spirit. As a pastor I used to know used to say "religion IS the science of the spirit, the other science is just the science of the physical universe." I like that distinction and have held his words to remind me of the distinction. The two go hand in hand, one views the physical universe and searches for understanding while the other views the spiritual universe and searches for understanding. The two may be opposites, but that does not mean that they are not beneficial to us. In fact, both have proven to be beneficial to us.

Thus, I agree that one should never bother to argue or debate since the science of the spiritual universe and the science of the physical universe are two different approaches to the universe itself.

Peace be with you.

Note: the same pastor that said this often called churches, synagogues, mosques, temples, etc "they are the hospitals of the spirit". I have since heard this expressed similarly, as well as what he also said about religion and science, by many other wise and respected teachers from different religious traditions.
