The Indiana Department of Education has announced it will not develop a curriculum for this idiocy, and schools won’t be required to include creationism in classes. The bill passed the state senate 28-22, indicating (I hope) that at least 22 state senators are not morons.

But we haven’t heard yet whether they’re going to propose, again, that pi be rounded up to 3.2 …

So, Homo Sapiens Sapiens are a mistake, because the Flying Spaghetti Monster go drunk on his own volcano.
And Somalians are the only ones fighting global warming, because they have the greatest number of pirates?

In order to believe in evolution, you have to purposely ignore certain facts of reality. For example, when you see illustrations of primates being pictured as evolving into humans, it can be shown in a court of law that such a premise is impossible, because certain human and primate traits are different, and could not have ever been shared.

LOLWhut…!?

Dude…lay off the Henry Morris crap. On the other hand, you would have been a real hoot to have in my Paleontology, and Igneous/Metamorphic/Sedimentary petrology classes!

Greg, not only a description, but twenty seven eight-by-ten color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one.

I’m a “visual learner”. 🙂

The evolution theory is an irrational falsehood, embraced by atheists, that is a phony conclusion of the 600+ million year fossil record. There is no valid â??supporting dataâ? for evolution. In a court of law, or in a public forum, the same evidence that evolutionists would use to try to â??proveâ? that false theory, I would utilize to reveal the truth of Genesis. In order to believe in evolution, you have to purposely ignore certain facts of reality. For example, when you see illustrations of primates being pictured as evolving into humans, it can be shown in a court of law that such a premise is impossible, because certain human and primate traits are different, and could not have ever been shared. The only â??common ancestorâ? that humans and primates share is God Himself.

Creationism canâ??t be taught in science class, ONLY BECAUSE there is no one in any school system that is qualified to teach Biblical Creation. The doctrines of current Creationism are both false (old earth), and foolish (young Earth). Both creationist views misrepresent the Genesis text, and should not be part of any curriculum. The point Iâ??m making is that part of the subject matter in biology science class is the advent and extinction of past life forms on Earth, which Creationism does not address. But without offering an opposing view, schools are brainwashing students with the tenets of Atheism, which is both unconstitutional to be state sponsored, and evil.

Current Creationism is ignorant of the Genesis text, and either teaches foolishness (young Earth), or false doctrines (non-literal reading of the text). Creationists foolishly try to prove â??Creationismâ?, rather than seeking and teaching the truth of Genesis. How can an untruth, ever prove another lie, to be in error? You canâ??t do it. That is why Creationism fails. It essentially is also a lie, and should be discarded.

The correct opposing view to evolution is the â??Observations of Mosesâ?. It properly conveys what God was showing Moses, and explains the text of Genesis chapter one.

I found in the Congo in which the beginning of humanity is associated with a particularly ribald sex act.

Well, Hinduism posits a universe trillions of years old that goes through various stages but, in brief, using the image of a coiling and uncoiling snake, is endlessly expanding and contracting. Sort of puts Genesis in perspective.
