But is the Biblic creation proven? Or for that matter, the Hinduistic creation?

If proof and rationalism is so important for you: Do you trust a book which approves of genocide and incest but then also benovelence and tolerance, and was written by several writers over centuries, starting for over 2000 years ago?

Keep science in science classes and religion in religion classes.



Quote:

You pretty much know nothing about the Bible.



While I certainly don't the read the Bible as often as, lets say Bush Jr, I have read most parts of the New Testament and I have it on my bookshelf. As I've said before, I've been taught religion at grade school and (senior) high school, and since my childhood I have a book called My own book of Bible Stories written by Pat Alexander (1983).

And if there's a strong possibility that science should be concordant with religion, then they shouldn't be separated. There's more given proof of creation than there is for evolution. Are you so spiteful towards religion as to practice junk science--While you know its junk science--Just to keep the concept of God out of schools?



1st, evolution is not "junk science". 2nd, if you had read my other posts, you would have known that I certainly am not "spiteful" against religion(s). Orthodox and certainly fundamentalistic interpretions of it/them, is another question...
