Intelligent Design, yes, another religion related topic Options

[Spirited Away]

PA school board says it's okay to teach Creationism, or "intelligent design".

Funny thing is people, that they say "it's not fair to teach kids one thing, but not another" and that they wanted a "balanced representation".

Now then, I ask you where is balance in teaching Creationsim, without teaching what Buddha teaches, what Mohammed teaches, what Hindu gods teach?

Don't get me wrong, I do believe in Creationism to a certain extent so I would not mind taking the course. I only wanted to point out how silly these people are for coming up with such a problematic arguement.

because there isn't enough time and money.

no religon has logic on it's side. evolution does, and it relates directly to biology. therefore, it is taught in biology classes. religions have faith on thier side, which cannot be taught.

evolution isn't going against creationism in any way.

there are two main facets of evolution:

natural selection: this has been scientifically proven with flys ( about 30 generations)

speciation: harder to prove, but it has been with flys (about 70 generations)

now, my biology textbook had a sticker in it saying evolution was 'only a theory' and it 'wasn't proven'

yet here are some theories:

the earth has molten rock in it.
why electricity works
the model of the atom
etc.

and evolution is proven.

i also don't see why some creationists see evolution and creationism as contradictory

it's like saying michalangelo carved this statue ( creationism) or he used a chisel ( evolution)
