I don't have a stance on it, because honestly, I don't care.

But I remember people trying to disprove the ToE, and they sucked at trying. All they seem to know is "apes to humans", or that oil on sand doesn't evolve into a cell phone.

None of them, which is obvious as soon as they open their mouths.

But how can you not care? The issue is the choice between knowledge and willful ignorance, a rather important one - or 'don't you care' if we go back to when those who asked questions were burned at the stake?

It does not matter. They don't want to know. What they want is for other people to think as they do. It is really ridiculous wasting time attempting to educate the uneducated.

We see a prefect example of the thought processes these people use in the answer form Rev. Albert, "The thing to remember is that evolution is just a theory, a speculation, an unproven assumption....and NOT supported by the fossil record."

His statement is a lie, it is that simple, a lie. He knows even less about evolution than the person asking the question. Even if he did know, he would cover that up and lie, just to get his point across.

Oh here we go again Rev.Al taking quotes out of context again. What ever you find that Stephen Jay Gould might have said let me assure you he did not support the creationist viewpoint. Trying to make it seem so is dishonest,but that's nothing new to you. As you are so fond of suggesting that others get an education you should try it. Start by reading something other than the Bible. There are other books whether you like it or not. As for intolerance that you are always accusing everyone else of you are as narrow minded as any Muslim extremist.

And by the way Al he asked you to tell what you actually know about ToE not give us a bunch of misquotes.

Well, Laura I have a brain.That's more than I can say for you. You snipe at me I'll snipe back just as hard.

Must we continue to drag this on even though we all know we aren't going to convert each other. Live and let live. The diehard fundie isn't going to convince me and I will never convince the die-hard fundie. Hell, I was raised fundie and no one "convinced" me. I did the research for myself.

(Anyone who does not use the scientific method as their tool will suck at disproving anything.)

A theory is not a speculation or an assumption. As defined by science a theory is a set of observations that are devised to explain a group of facts or phenomena. They have been repeatedly tested and have yet to be falsified. That is a theory in science. Not some haphazard notion concocted in the middle of the night. It a strict result of the scientific method. Remember, gravity is a theory.

likely by final loss of mind of the human species. additionally because of the fact of a loss of analyze, as maximum people who do not have confidence in Evolution think of that the belief of Evolution tries to describe how the earth/universe grew to become into created (that's great Bang thought), or how life grew to become into created (that's Speciation). For those of you that don't be responsive to, the belief of Evolution purely explains how life, after the earth grew to become into created, and after life already began, got here from being merely single cellular organisms (that have been all that there grew to become into for quite a few billion years) to the complicated life varieties we've immediately.

I know that in my state Evolution is mandated to be taught and is in Middle and High Schools (I am not sure about the Elementary level.) It is taught that evolution is a proven fact and that Creationism is simply something some people believe (IE an intelligent designer, aka God) due to religious reasons.
I dont think the public school system teaches Creationism anymore...

Oh the Bio teachers favorite debate that is so difficult to teach if you have to teach Creationism in Isolation of Evolution. Some states actually require it be taught not with both but alone....

I can't say but PBS few years back has a good video debating just this Title: Evolution: "What about God?", Telling the Christian side/thought process. It is from 2001, I am sure their are newer ones out. But I am on sabbatical and no longer writing lesson plans on this.

You still may not find the arguments compelling, but entertaining.

well first of all, if you really dont care, why are you asking a biased question like this? second of all, you will never get a clear view of the creationist belief if you refer to all creationists as kiddies and dont even open your mind to actually READ some evidence from scientific journals ( such as what was posted above). Just because some people sucked at trying to disprove it doesn't mean its not true. that is illogical assumption and if you just discriminate against the creation theory because of these special few, your just as dumb as them. As for your question, I dont think anyone has any relevant statistics to tell how many "Creation kiddies know ToE"

AND FINALLY, TO ALL YOU SCIENCE PPL (ESPECIALLY THAT 12 YEAR OLD WHO IS PRETENDING "ME=BIOLOGIST")ACTING ALL HIGH AND MIGHTY BECAUSE OF YOUR SAFETY IN NUMBERS, UP YOURS YOU DAM FOOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

have a nice day

By the way: if you really wanted some answers, you could just post that you would like to host some sort of discussion about this topic, so you dont just get the traditional answers consisting of one creationist vs. rest of the secularists with no lives posting on all the biased evolution v. creation questions like yours. makes me wonder whether you enjoy reading biased ramble against creationism just for the heck of it.

**It is VERY amusing to me that laymen like yourself who push evolution theory so vehemently are so ignorant of what most evolutionary scientists have said about the fossil record....

Even Charles Darwin was honest when he confesses in 'Origin of Species'; " But as by THIS THEORY innumerable transitional forms must have existed, why do we NOT find them embedded in countless numbers in the crust of the earth?" -Charles Darwin

To the above fact, even the most world renown (evolutionary) biologists agree...." New species almost always appear suddenly in the fossil record with NO intermediate links to ancestors in older rocks in the same region. The fossil record with its abrupt transitions OFFERS NO SUPPORT for gradual change". - Stephen J. Gould (Natural History , June, 1977, p.22)

"The extreme rarity (of transitional forms) in the fossil record persists as the 'trade secret' of palentology. The evolutionary tree (diagarms) that adorn our textbooks is.....NOT the evidence of fossils". - Stephen Gould (Natural History, 1977, vol.86, p.13)

"Evolution REQUIRES intermediate forms between species and paleontology DOES NOT provide them" (David Kitts, paleontologist and evolutionist).

According to Scripture NOTHING evolved but everything was created "AFTER THEIR KIND"....which is directly consistent with the fossil record.

The thing to remember is that evolution is just a theory, a speculation, an unproven assumption....and NOT supported by the fossil record.
