Certain people don’t like other people saying their particular scientific theory has “weaknesses”.

The problem is that non-scientists keep pointing to weaknesses that do not exist simply because it contradicts their understanding of their religion.

Ooo! That does sound bad. Let's find out what they have to say. Oh. Nevermind. Let's just pretend that the theory of Evolution has no open questions.

You are aware that there are frustrating problems with the theory of Evolution as there is with almost every theory, right? Are we teaching kids Science or some secular catechism?

Science is “shop class” of inquiry. It is quite practical but it cannot replace poetry of meaning.

If you want to determine what is found in the bottom of a test tube science is your boy. I doubt anyone disagrees with that.

If you want to announce that nothing exists outside the lab because the lab cannot measure it then you have wandered above your pay grade. Calling it superstition may make you feel intellectually superior but sneering with labels only displays lack of civility and childish argumentation.

If the evidence is overwhelming then overwhelm us. Simply telling people to not question it is not acceptable in a free society. People who are afraid of having their beliefs questioned usually are not as secure in them as they would like to appear.

No it’s not:

http://www.dissentfromdarwin.org

Calling these scientists non sientists is a failed tactic.

Moreover the true problem is the non-scientists sue and censor and shout down the majority of Americans that support creation science/ID.

And another problem is the godless atheist agenda which has hijacked evolution to support their ideology. See Michael Newdow among others. Failed godless liberalsiim and secular humanism in Europe has allowed Christianity to be replaced with militant Islam.

Failed godless NEA run schools are a disaster! They’re hellbent in keeping God out, banning Christmas from school calendars and socializing children as opposed to teaching them and it shows!

Finally the godless liberal agenda is NOT objective...

not in science class

not in journalism

not in history class

not political science class

not in law (activist judges)

etc.

THAT is the problem, a much larger culture war in America is THE problem.

This separation of church and state PC liberalism lunacy is destroying the very fabric of this country.

Science class is merely a subset.
