I've been over this ground on more than one occasion with Fiddla, and it won't sink in. He'll keep misdiagnosing the issue and repeating himself until you either lapse into unconsciousness or pull your hair out.

Like I said, he reverts into Kracus in this discussion with his ability to miss the issue at hand.

Perhaps it's his way of paying homage to Kracus in his absence...I dunno.

Perhaps it's his refusal to own up to a solid opinion or stance on the issue, and obfuscating around it by pointing out the things that people don't know.

riddla - the heart of the issue is which theory should be taught in a science classroom.

That's it.

You're not speaking to the heart of anything except a question that has never been answered and likely never will.

That is not the heart of this issue at all. You just refuse to recognize it.

And why should we teach any theory in a science classroom Kracus?

Are you talking to me, or did Kracus pull a drive-by?

You're discussing your own topic, you stooge.

The thread isn't about arguing whether god made us or we evolved -- we've done that a thousand times here.

That's what you're doing now -- but you're still in the bitching phase.

You haven't jumped to the heart of anything. You've missed the entire point.

I'm not sure what in the world made me think you were intelligent at one time, but I'm glad my illusions have been dispelled.

True, we don't know. Nobody truly knows, but evolution has a lot of evidence, mostly indirect. Now we only touched on evolution as a source of life, we mainly did evolution from being to being, of course doesn't the Bible say like we are only 45,000 years old as an earth, something like that. The problem is that you can't really give any evidence or indirect evidence for ID. Hell if what all I'm hearing in my Physics class is right we don't truly understand electricity either. I think this will be quite a debate, but I would like to point out that evolution started with Darwin and the other guy, I forget his name, but that happened around in the 1800s and went through tons of crap by many people and has been reserched since and I believe it was first taught in pubic school in the 1970s, at least in the US. It is too early of a "theory" to be taught in public schools, needs more time.

Science would be worthless if it taught young children in school that Zeus could have created the universe with a lightning bolt. Would it not?

We don't know that Zues isn't on his mighty throne right now casting lightning bolts down on the Earth during electrical storms, so I think I am going to start teaching that when discussing weather.

Good call. There's no way to prove otherwise, so both theories should be given equal teaching time. :icon14:

Hey, I can tell when you're being sarcastic and badmouthing Zeus. Zeus is the only reasonable theory out there for explaining lightning. The logic is simple... When I drink a cup of water, am I afraid of being electrocuted? NO! Lightning can't come from water, it could only be caused by a supernatural force.... Zeus.
