I will reiterate, studying evolution in schools neither postulates nor even addresses the existence or non-existence of God.

No, it just tells kids that what they read in the Bible is a lie. We know, here's our [theory] proof.

There are lots of links. Look here:

A bunch of links don't give you any more evidence than the null set you have now. An argument from silence doesn't become an argument from falsifiable evidence by producing some web links about theories.

Not true. The net total energy of the universe is thought to be zero.

Thought total energy in the universe is thought to be zero. Uhuh. Putting on my foil hat.

I thought it interesting that RadioAstronomer linked you to a site called "infidels.com" to bolster his argument. That pretty much says it all.

Cite one scientific article that mentions that the Bible is a lie. If you interpret the data in such a way, that is your choice.

I could give you a list of text books instead if you would like.

If the universe is "flat", the net energy = 0. See:

Web pages about transitional fossils are about the evidence for a theory. When creationists say, "There is no evidence," the proof of their assertion is that no one can make them see the evidence. This is an intellectually bankrupt science indeed! Cretin Science!

SInce you did not bother to reply, I take it the links in post 79 were good enough to refute your tin foil comment to me.
