reyonthehill: Funding Scientific Education
Funding Scientific Education
Federal funding for public education should only be for true science, and not junk science. The true sciences are those that are supported by the scientific community. Creation is a pure example of junk science. Supporters of creationism (and teaching creationism) insist that their belief is a "theory," just as evolution is a "theory," and both "theories" should be taught. (Actually, they insist that only one theory be taught, and that being the insane theory of creation. But let's accept their argument.) I do agree: they are both theories. However, evolution is a theory based on facts and evidence, and is supported by the scientific community. Creation does not meet any of those criteria.

No federal dollars should support the teaching of voodoo science, i.e., creation. Creation says that dinosaurs did not exist. Those crazy bones found all over the world were planted by liberals in the early seventies to force god's childen into believing satan's idea of evolution. Creation doesn't account for life on Mars, yet evangelical christian Bush plans on spending billions to find life on Mars. Isn't that ironic?

Here is some homework: Try to get a creationist to explain caveman writings. Or ancient civilizations: the Greeks, Egyptians, or Mayans (that existed before 2000 B.C. - the year the world was created). They will probably mumble, "those damn liberals and their theories."
