It amazes me how easily someone will try to say "IT'S A FACT" when in all reality they have absolutely not a single scrap of a clue what they're talking about. For Instance:
Intelligent design was not "invented by churches". Belief in creation (that a higher being is responsible for our existence) is the original belief that ever was - in all recorded history! The oldest recorded history is in fact the Bible, and popular studies of the bible estimate that to be about 6 thousand years ago. Evolution, on the other hand was only introduced less than 200 years ago. Read
THIS on encyclopedia.com :
Quote:concept of evolution developed in the mid-19th cent. by Charles Robert Darwin . Darwin's meticulously documented observations led him to question the then current belief in special creation of each species.
As you can see - that statement is COMPLETELY backwards. It's the evolution theory that was INVENTED as an alternative to the "Intelligent Design" belief which had existed for about 6 THOUSAND years!
Quote: ... so that they could teach the bible in tax payer funded schools.
How stupid are you people? The belief of intelligent design was in existence long before there ever were schools, long before there ever were taxes!! Thousands of years before th United States of America EVER EXISTED!! Do you not realize that most countries and their constitutions were FOUNDED with complete acceptance of "intelligent design" or belief in creation - whichever you call it and were based on christian principles and beliefs? You should REALLY get your head into a TINY bit of history and you'd learn a LOT.
Of all the stupid arguments I've heard - this is one of the worst. Completely mind-numbing babbling ignorance. It's this type of reasoning that sometimes nudges me towards the belief that you have evolved from sea-sludge... nothing else would be so senseless and ignorant.
LMAO!!
