Vain weathervane.
I hate to break the news to you, but evolution has been sustained as a scientific theory for 146 years. That's longer than most current scientific theories of physics and chemistry have been sustained.
Intelligent design has been sustained as a scientific theory for a grand total of zero years. To be clear, that's zero followed by an infinite number of zeros.
I've been leery of Santorum ever since he supported Scottish Law SPecter over Toomey.
Lately? This pig eyed politician is not even liked by lots of committee people. He is singing the song that he thinks will get him elected.
Actually it is the other way around, since Darwinian origin is in fact pure religion, and the case for Intelligent Design is based in science. Hence Santorum is merely running with the shallow-thinking herd of hard-core secularists who oppose true science and open inquiry.
I fail to see how Catholic automatically = pro-evolution.
Evolution is not faith based. It is the basis for modern biology.
Creationism, on the other hand, involves the supernatural and requires a tremendous amount of faith on the ancient scriptures.
You're arguing the wrong point. The real issue -- the one that will have consequence -- is what it looks like to the rest of the world, including the scientific and business communities, if a state adopts ID.
Trolls always have a good time, and their posts get lots of responses. As a troll, you're sure to be the center of attention. Other trolls will praise your posts. Never again will your comments be ignored, merely because you don't know what you're talking about. And as a troll, you'll enjoy the power you have to ruin any thread just by showing up and trolling. Oh, the fun!
Trolling is easy. It's simple. And the beauty of it is ... you don't have to know anything! Here's a complete catalog of an evolution troll's intellectual inventory. Just print out this toolkit, and use one or two items at random every time you post. Don't worry if someone refutes you. Just repeat your earlier post. Then keep on trolling! They'll go crazy! Guaranteed!

This “Theory Explained” for its “misuse” is common for the evolutionist. It is accurate but slick in its presentation. It leaves itself an out if you read it with the word phenomena.
Just because something is observable does not mean it is fully explainable. This is the wiggle room the evolutionist needs to keep their “theory” as the only acceptable form of knowledge describing our origin. Yet in all of this I have never heard why there can be laws of physics that had to be violated to make it possible. The 2nd law of thermodynamics had to be violated for the theory of evolution to move from idea to fact. Things had to go from disorder to order for it to have happened. Oh, I do get “explanations”, but they are point of view, not based upon the law they firmly believe in.
"Robertson warned residents, "If there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God, you just rejected him from your city."
What an idiot.
There is no proof whatsoever that man evolved from a single celled organism. There are plenty of fairy tales, but when push comes to shove, it's nothing more than a pipe dream.
Those who have swallowed that pipe dream hook line and sinker are experiencing nothing more than a faith based experience.
Even definitive proof of how the one celled organism originated is up for grabs.
LOL!
I love your world view table of replies. The flat earth folks thought the same way...they were closed minded on the subject all the while accusing others of the same.
Spontaneously laughter and giggling. Thanks.
Too bad for us conservatives that some in our ranks have decided to use a political forum to decide scientific issues. From my experience on these forums, those who push for the exclusion of evoution or the inclusion of ID or creationism in the curriculum, demonstrate a very limited understanding of, and education in, science. Then there are those who feel their religious faith is threatened by science...they are our equivlaent to the Taliban and, as such, represent a real scourge to the Conservative Movement.
I have to agree. Who is Robertson to say such a thing because a few folks in a courtroom and on a school board have made such actions? I be a lot of folks in that area don't even know about this whole hub-bub.
Evolution is a theory. The lineage of single cell to man is not a solid line. Evolution does occur. That is an observable fact. That still does not prove that man evolved by the theory of evolution. Therefore, anyone who believes in the theory is merely accepting it on faith.
I guess Santorum doesn't want to be re-elected after all.
This is a creo thread. On creo threads, Catholics are not even Christians.
LOL, stooping to calling others the Taliban are we? Very powerful arguement...
