I think it's really stupid that Georgia banned teaching about evolution in school, the fact is, there is a ton of stuff in the natural world that can't be explained without evolutionWhat do y'all think about it

Even though learning about evolution and stuff is my favorite part of school, in a way, I don't think they should be teaching it, because it confuses people about their religion, because it is contradictory. At least I am kind of confused.
Why SHOULDN'T it be taught? It's part of science.

There's no need for you to talk bad about my religion.
and to Silver Stardust: I said "in a way, I don't think..............."
I didn't just flat out say I don't think, because I do find the subject of evolution interesting.
Hey, you came to the evolution thread, full of people who are flooding with scientific information. By coming in here, you agreed to have your religion put up and taunted. Yours, along with every other religion, will be picked apart and ridiculed here, in case you haven't read the other posts.
Anyway, if something makes someone doubt their faith, maybe that person should take a good strong look at the reason why they believe in their religion in the first place. If their opinion doesn't change, good for them, it means they have a strong will and don't bend easily(it also means they refuse to believe facts). If they are constantly doubting their religion, that's great too, because their eyes have been opened, and they are seeing facts for what they are. Irrefutable proof about how the world is run.
Evolution is actually shown inside the womb of a pregnant woman! The egg and sperm meet, and form one fertilized cell. Then this cell splits into a multi-celled organism. Then this keeps splitting and morphing, until the fetus looks like an aquatic animal. Yes, with a tail and everything. Then it grows it's legs and the tail disappears, and all the physical features begin to form. While the physical features form, the organs form, out of goop. The fetus doesn't even look human until the final stages of the pregnancy! The fetus doesn't breathe air. Ever. Not is it until the baby is completely out of the womb does it experience air. Then a few years later, it crawls on all fours!(remind me, don't monkeys use their hands to walk?) Then it actually stands upright.
Isn't that amazing? From a cingle celled organism to a walking human being in several years, and ALL of it, parrallels evolution.
No, I just don't think your argument is a very good one. And I do study History, and I have never read that Christianity has caused all of that stuff that you say that it has caused, but I don't really strongly care what people think about chritianity, cause like i said i am sort of confused when it comes to what i believe in.
I'm sorry powerfulone1987; but not knowing this either points to:
1) one EXTREMELY crappy school, and I suggest you switch right away
2) a childish believe in your faith that you can't or are not willing to look at the past and see how murderous they were... in that case I suggest you educate yourself post haste...
so... no creatism?

like in the Crusades. Fighting for god? pure BS, the church was wanted more power, and look ta the damage the wars caused.
PO1987> The Crusades. Study those. Then study: Catholics vs Protestants in Europe and the wars those conflicts gave rise to. Then try the Inquisition and witch-burnings on for size. Then go on to colonisation and forceful conversions… When you’re done with that, visit militant anti-abortionists sites, fundamentalist Christian sites that say it’s okay to hate people because they’re gay, or black or what have you. Watch Mississippi Burning, then read up on Catholic Priests molesting young boys… Then READ the Bible…
Does God approve of bigamy? (Lamech)
Does God approve of incestuous marriages (Abram marries his half-sister).
Then… return.
Okay everyone... I don't think PO1987 is a Creationist, but just some kid who wants to talk... So retract claws (That also means YOU Yers), retract fangs (BOTH Darths... thank you)... and be nice 😄
