• Meet Creationists’ Nightmare — The Teen Who Is Combating Christians & Defending Evolution in Public Schools

  January 16, 2013 at 2:33pm

  ‘Kopplin argues that “creationism is not science” and that teaching the theology side-by-side with evolution “violates the separation of church and state.’
  -Evolution is not science, teaching theology(evolution) in the classroom alone violates the separation of church and state. It always amazes me that people think religion is not being taught in the public schools science classes. The religion of humanism has replaced the religion of christianity from the schools, they are not neutral as many would have you assume.

  ‘He also expressed fears that laws that allow for more creationism in the classroom put students at a disadvantage when it comes to properly understanding the sciences.’
  -An assumption that just has no basis in reality im afraid. There are many P.HD scientist who also hold to a literal 6 day creation.

  “Teaching Biblical creationism is promoting one very specific fundamentalist version of Christianity, and violating the rights of every other American citizen who doesn’t subscribe to those beliefs,”
  -But teaching only evolution is doing the same thing to the people who believe a literal 6 day creation. What you mean is your willing to be tolerant of anything except a literal 6 day creation.

• With Young Voters, Republicans Must Give Up on Social Issues or Give Up Altogether, Poll Data Suggests

  So in other words: the GOP needs to stop being conservative. Thats essentially what your saying. Sorry, i’m a 20 year old, my conservative values come from belief in God and i will not compromise on Him.

  Obama in 2008:
  ‘What I’ve said to [my daughters] is that I believe that God created the universe and that the six days in the Bible may not be six days as we understand it . . . it may not be 24-hour days, and that’s what I believe. I know there’s always a debate between those who read the Bible literally and those who don’t, and that I think is a legitimate debate within the Christian community of which I’m a part. My belief is that the story that the Bible tells about God creating this magnificent Earth on which we live – that is essentially true, that is fundamentally true. Now, whether it happened exactly as we might understand it reading the text of the Bible: That, I don’t presume to know.’

  Double standard much?

  This article is so full of straw-man fallacies that its hard to even know where to begin.

  Nah. Not going to happen.

• Michael Moore: ‘By Watching Fox News You Have De-Evolved’

  November 18, 2012 at 11:55am

  How about you watch multiple news sources and do your own research. Michael Moore is just trying to silence anything that contradicts his own worldview/viewpoint. Typical propaganda.

• MSNBC Host Gives Wild Global Warming Speech: ‘You Are Either on the Side of Your Fellow Citizens…Or the Side of the Storms’

  November 3, 2012 at 11:07pm

  >>>You are either on the side of your fellow citizens and residents of this planet, or you are on the side of the storms as yet unnamed.<<<

  Either-or fallacy at its finest….

• Oh geez: Hollywood gives Romney the ‘zombie’ treatment

  I honestly dont understand this. Joss Whedon writes like a conservative but is a liberal? Does he not understand his writing contradicts his viewpoint?

  In reply to MicahJank.

  Well, there is a lot of nonsense to go through in what he said. But i’d like to respond to a few of his statements in the video below.

  >the evidence for it is astonishing, it’s overwhelmingWhat do these guys do, I ask myself, when they take their children to a conventional natural history museum and their fossil dinosaur bones.And you’re able to make americium because you understand how protons and neutrons interact, you understand, nuclear physics. And by understanding it you infer that the earth is 4 and a half billion years old.there’s no controversy among scientists<
  The scientists at ICR dont believe in evolution.(now this is where someone jumps in with a no true Scotsman fallacy.)

  Still not convincing Billy Nye.
  Thanks
