But don’t they have a State Church? The Orthodox Church occupying that status?

A Resilient Iran Shields Itself from Pressure by Building Alliances

"But in another sign of the fragile nature of Washington's anti-Iran alliance, the leaders of Russia, Turkey and Iran convened a regional security summit Tuesday to emphasize the realignment of military power in the region. Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, who backs U.N. sanctions, said the measures should not "be excessive" or impose undue hardship on the Iranian leadership or the Iranian people."

Desperate? The one who is calling God a liar is calling me desperate? LOL!!!

If you like, I can give you a list of Bible prophecies made by God that have actually happened just so you know that God is, indeed, omniscient and omnipresent and knows past, present and future and knew thousands of years ago that there would be a Russian invasion of Israel. I know it may cave your entire world in, but before you start calling others desperate, you need to get the facts and the fact is is that God, not me, said that Russia will invade Israel.

You are one who is desperately and dangerously grasping at straws, grasping at anything you can to deny what God said because of some strange fixation om a country that could not give a rat's a** about you or what happens to you.

Frankly, its bizarre, and DESPERATE.

This is what should be done: Darwinism theory should be explained, as logically as possible. Then, discussions should ensue about why so many thoughtful people believe that evolution is IMPOSSIBLE. Debate should not be feared, but it is. God forbid that students be encouraged to think for themselves before they have been brainwashed by origins demagogues. Bob

Yes, evolution is a scientific theory. As such it explains the evidence and allows accurate prediction.

Creationism is not a scientific theory and is an intellectual dead end that leads nowhere in terms of use or discovery.

If you want to instruct students in science in science class (a radical and novel idea to some apparently), then keep out religious dogma. It has no place there. Teach religion in religion class, that is where it belongs.

Stalin may have lost his faith because he read Darwin, but then he supported Lysenko, whose view of evolution was quite different and illogical.

Yep, and Stalin exiled anybody who agreed with Darwin and Mendel to Siberia.

Lysenkoism was just as unscientific as creationism, but dressed in the language of the ‘theology’ of communism.

:') I think it gives Stalin too much credit. He was a twisted freak with a frightening level of disregard for human life. I like this shot, it shows Stalin's warm side, smiling pleasantly while Lysenko paints the way to the future.
