At my college they offered a free one hour session about evolution and intelligent design. The teacher was a biology professor at the school and believed that evolution was right. He explained to us he believed in God and a lot of people who agree with evolution also believe in God. He said that evolution does NOT explain how life started, just how it has developed over the years. It took about 15 minutes and bam it was crazy. people started yelling at him because evolution doesnt explain the start of life, they yelled at him because he explained how mitocondria producing energy is inefficient, and they yelled at him because they didnt read the entire bible.

i just wanted to hear what he had to say but instead we had to listen to jerks talk about how jesus made everything perfect. I JUST WANTED TO LISTEN TO THE LECTURE....luckily it was free so it was ok, but if i wanted to argue about religion vs sciencei would have come here and not went to school hoping to learn

Judas was also a zealot.
young Christians are not mature.
my 4 years old granddaughter behaves the same way.

Don't blame it on Christians. You happen to walk into a situation where people who believe in God might have been the instigators. I say "might have" because I wasn't there.

However, there are plenty of time where the roles are reversed. Unfortunately there isn't a solution. Religion and politics will always boil blood.

You're right you can't rationalize with idiots. So I have to wonder why we still entertain questions such as yours?

First of all GOD made everything.The bible does talk about universe a lot.The bible says that everything GOD created was done in 6 days.GOD knows what was there before he created the universe and he knows where the universe will be going.He is in ultimate control over his creation.What more way to know about his creation than the word of GOD the bible.The universe declares GOD glory and shows his awesome power at work.But not only wants u to know about him creation he wants u to know him personally ,to love him and to have a wonderful relationship with him.

"For GOD so loved the world that he gave his only beggotten son that whoso ever believeth in him shall not perish but have everlasting life".So ask JESUS to be ur saviour and forgive ur sins and cleanse ur life.

The proof and evidence is all around you and everywhere, undeniable proof, and indisputable visible evidence. It is called creation and life. Unless your are blind, deaf, and senseless. You can see, smell, taste, hear, feel, and examine the evidence.

We live on a planet teeming with life. Plant life with approximately 250,000 species, animal life with over a million species. Scientists are learning just how complex life is. So complex that it requires design. The evidence of design requires a designer. Scientists are also learning the conditions for life; just how perfect conditions here on planet Earth are to support all this life.

The human brain, it absorbs forty megabytes per second of data while awake. That is two terabytes of data a day. At night, it sorts and stores that data through the creation of new chemical bonds and synaptic connectors.

Sure, right, this all just happened and evolved. This sort of thinking takes considerable faith, exponentially more faith than believing in a creator.

Because they don't know their own religion the bible warn,s us about zealot,s. That,s why.They just give religion a bad rep. Like Jim Jones and David Koresh they gather other zealot,s to them create havoc then commit the ultimate sin suicide.

That's sad... I never heard of an atheist interrupting a sermon that way... though it's probably been done. I feel sorry for the professor, and I can't believe he tolerated students disrespecting him like that.

Why are you blaming us? I don't think anyone on Yahoo answers was in your class. Are you judging an entire 2 billion people based on your own class?


Heated debates aren't bad things, either.

Did you stand up and ask them to stop? Or just sit back? Why did you not stand up and tell them that you wanted to hear what he had to say?

This is why ID cannot and should not ever be taught in school. It legitimizes a farce and makes people who believe in it think they're entitled to shout down any other theory (even the one supported by evidence).
