Actually I dont believe in evolution or creationism
Creationism, as propounded by modern conservative christians is however, full of more holes than a chocolate tea pot....as such it is moronic....
now if the creationist crowd actually got together, pulled their collective heads from their posteriors and thought out some coherant arguemtns beyond "Here's the bible, read it" or "Well evolution is stupid, this means creationism is correct...then, maybe, there'd be something
Creationism no matter how hard you try, is never goign to be science, thus it is NOT and never will be an ALTERNATIVE to evolution, one that can be taught in our classrooms...why? in its current state, the idea odf creationism as propounded by small of thought conservative christians...does NOT follow the scientific methodology, as such then, it is not an alternative to evolution theory...its something that could compliment it, or as alternative...but it has as much place in a science class as learning how to knit does in science class.
Evolution theory of course is alos fraught with problems. Firstly and foremost of course it only deals with the physical. Now for evolution lovers everywhere that is generally ok, for many of us, this is howver, rather foolish. Science of course, despite the cries of evolution lovers, does not deal with the truth. Science deals with models of the truth, constructs. As does religion, but there. As such then, evolution is a close approximation but is not the truth. We can compare it by imaginign a person who has a book of the streets of London, and their amazement when they see the streets of London face to face...the book is very different to the streets of london. Thus it is the same for evolution. Evolution is the book, reality is the streets....
SO what do we have? Evolution theory is one method of describing how things work, its close but no cigar. Creationism is so simplistic and ill prepared in construction and thought, it is frankly childish, puerile and pathatic.
Think for yourself, deny creationism AND evolution
the Map is NOT the territory
Good post. You have shown that it takes faith to believe either one. I agree with most of this post. However I disagree to deny creationism when it is in the book that I deem the Holy Book. I don't want to be on the wrong side of life and death.
