RE: Scray shit...
why is it so scary? why is it so damn abhorrent for people who truly believe to want their faith perpetuated?
I agree, religion really should be a private matter, and if people want their children to believe a certain way they should send them to private schools with the same beliefs, or home school (I think we should all do this anyway since public school is nothing but a conformity factory where those that dont quite fit are often beaten into submission)
what irritates me though is the way you lot ridicule people, as if somehow having faith in science makes you infallible, and those that simply "have faith" are idiots.
fucking bullshit!
science doesnt prove jack shit. everything is theory. we dont know what the fuck happened 15 million years ago. we dont know what happened 5000 years ago...even the written record is often tainted with subjectivity.
quit acting so damn pompous. both sides. we dont fucking KNOW.
the only thing you can really KNOW is direct, personal experience, right here, right now. all this speculation about the past is just useless.
whats wrong with teaching different perspectives then, huh? if science is so damn correct, why do you lot act so threatened by religion? why not allow it to be taught as a perspective?
