Kansas State School Board At It Once Again

This crap makes school vouchers and home schooling sound better by the minute.Then again, maybe part of this is the fault of evolutionists. If they'd hand out the latest dissertations and scientific publications for free on the street corner with easy to follow cartoons like this, we wouldn't have these problems.

Half serious actually. Sideline pretty much illustrated the difficulty of putting out anything like that (freaking hilarious if someone did it though).Of course creos would argu that evos already do it with shows like Dinosaurs, the Land Time Forgot, etc. etc.But you are right. I honestly think one of the appeals of creationism is that for many people it is easier to believe "God did it" than "it was just some random event." Like some sort of distorted Occam's Razor: we feel more comfortable with explanations that have a purpose behind them than those that don't.Why else would Astrology and folk superstitions be so pervasive.Which do you find easier to believe: What's going to be easier for the folks in Kansas to believe? People exist as part of a plan, or as the result of a random mutation that could have just as easily not have happened?This message has been edited by custard, 02-27-2005 20:27 AMThis message has been edited by custard, 02-27-2005 20:28 AM

That and who comprises this board? Are they in any way qualified to determine what constitutes legitimate science?What's next, a hearing to determine whether physics teachers need to include the 'alternate theory' of nuclear forces: The will of god holds quarks together?Astronomy teachers need to include ID as an alternate to Big Bang theory in their curriculums?Creepy.

Except you're forgeting all those degrees handed out by places like Oral Roberts university. For every hard science degree earned in this country, who knows how many theology, divinity, philosophy, physical education, and communications degrees are issued.This message has been edited by custard, 03-03-2005 15:36 AM
