Teaching creationism in science class... I don't know how it works in America, but here in Britain we have a lesson entirely about religion, covering the various creation theories. They really need more time than that to cover "a big man made it?"
Also the FSM is made out of spaghetti and meatballs, both physical products of intelligent design (humans). That people accept it as a legitimate satire of the idea of God astounds me. Clearly critical thinking and philosophy be damned - let's all give into the popular bandwagon.

"Science is one belief among many." This is the dumbest quote I've heard in a while. There is no religion v science debate. Religion and science are exclusive categories. Science is one of many ways to obtain knowledge, and it is limited to the empirical. It makes no statement about religion.
I disagree with the ToE (specifically macroevolution) on the grounds that it's never been observed and is therefore not science. ToE and ID need to be taught in PHILOSOPHY class.
The professor seems to think it normal that people have a hard time accepting evolution. What he doesn't know is, that this problem only exists in the third world, the islamic world and the US (which ranks slightly ahead of Turkey)!
Most Europeans can only look at the evangelical nutters in disbelief, because we are not living in the 19th century anymore.

Darwin was not the first to theorize about evolution. In 600 B.C Anaximander believed that life developed from simpler forms, and came from the water. Socrates was executed for saying religion was speculation. Copernicus and Galileo were both persecuted for exposing the truths of science. It is time to get out of the dark ages folks!
@CanadiannGamerEh lol Since yesterday, I was just like you atheist, but after so many facts, Im also with you brother, lets both believe in our God, The flying Spaghetti Monster , R'amen !
@RadarGuidedVermin The old testament in the Holy Bible is written in Hebrew, which language or tongue is referred to as "Leshon HaKodesh" or Holy Tongue. It is all about the spoken Word of God. He spoke all creation into existence. Envision, if you will, God saying "let there be light", and in an unmeasurable instant all stars of the universe came into to existence...Universe= Uni(one) verse(or word)....God is sovereign over all His creation
An old book vrs a new book giving account about an old event..I choose to believe an old book account. The new book written by Darwin, the old book writen by men inspired by God.
@swandike But the old book was written 400 years after those events, and the new book has facts and research. And there are older books then yours. :P
@NoGripRacingGTR2 If you read scientific journals and reports, they always say, it is believed we had 2 moons. there is no certianity as to where we actually came from. The Bible has stood the test of time and has not been disproved as of date. So it is very relaible. There are 101 scientific facts in the Bible. Most people read it and did not make much out if it until we made discoveries that relates to them.
@swandike Never been disproved? Im sorry when you find a talking snake and women being made from ribs you can get back to me. I don't see how you support a book that's full of racism, sexism, rape and murder anyway.
@NoGripRacingGTR2 which part of the Bible supports all these claims.you watch atheist videos and make baseless conclusions for yourself. What about thou shall not kill, thou shall not commit adultery or even look at a woman and lust after her, how about love their neighbour as thyself. where did you get all that stuff from? Creating this universe and a snake talking to a woman, which one seems harder and impossible?the 2billion collider (LHC) is not achieving anything as of now
@swandike What about proving that the great flood was impossible or that the earth is not flat. There are many flaws with the bible. And there is more certainty that the earth is older than 6000 years than any of the stories that were carried word to mouth for 400 years and then written by Greeks.
@swandike If you're referring to the scrolls I think you are, those only prove that the Abrahamic religions are very, very old. Not that the stories are true.
@tangent94 But which part of the Bible says the earth is flat? Even though some scientist dont agree with a global flood, yet they agree there was a global disaster. Now there have been a sighting of Noah's ark on mount ararat in Turkey as in the Bible. There are also discoveries of petrified trees which cannot be explained other than a global flood that buried those trees. If the ice caps melt, and clouds turn to rain annd all underground water comes up, what will happen?
@woodygreens77 how can you possibly be? it's A-M-E-R-I-C-A... sorry but yes... thats how we see you all, i'm afraid... we see you as a country with high potencial that yet does only shit, and believes in shit. I am sorry.
. Intelligent design is just creationism re-writen to sound scientific. Creationism dose not even use the scientific methed, yet prefers faith in the authority of the bible, no matter what emperical evidence might exist to contradict the literal creation theology. If you reject the literal biblical account of creation, your a harritic. It's a fundie scare tactic.
EVOLUTION IS REAL!!! Who knows. Maybe christians got it wrong and some intelligent god put evolution into moton. But hey, you stubborn creationist monkeys, THE EVIDENCE IS EVERYWHERE!! It took millions of years for humans to develop as they are. Not 6 days.
what will they think of next? so they have evidence fsm created the universe but we werent around to see and have written accounts of it? this is no different than christians saying god created the universe but we weren't born to see it but men have written a bible about it and guess what? they have evidence of it.
Thank you, Rachel, for covering this. Just shows how ignorant we are in the US. Embarrassing! There is over 150 years worth of evidence in favor of evolution from paleontology, embryology, chemistry, and genetics. Evolution can be *understood*. No belief required. Get a clue!
People's worth? You think originating from monkeys affects your worth? Gee, and all the wars, injustices and harm humans enact on each other are.....? what, reinforcing the worth of humanity?
I tihnk the ship has sailed for the whole affecting our worth thing... Humanity sucks in many many aspects and the fact that we originate from monkey does very little to change that in any direction;
@americanpsycho93 Darwin is alleged to have reverted to superstition as death closed in, but thankfully science doesn't fall prey to the mutability of it's proponents. Darwin presented the idea, and science acknowledged it's truth. Darwin's alleged reversion caries with it no supporting evidence; thus, the claim is irrelevant.
The reference to Copernicus was very good and absolutely true. Religion will never give up one of it''s tenets until it is forced to do so and that may take many decades or even centuries. We humans have only been around as a species for a short time and religion has been around for about 12-15,000 years. That's the blink of an eye in real terms. We are still in our infancy as a species and it will take many more years before mankind rids itself of the scourge of religion. But it will happen
@americanpsycho93 He might of, but it makes no difference, we now have thousands of modern examples that prove and expand on the theory of evolution. Even if Darwin did change he's mind while dying, perhaps out of fear, it doesn't make it wrong.
And evolution is going to be in for a LONG run. Peopel want to see proff and untill you can how them an animals evolvion over a couple million years in front of thier face people will resist. At least with the earth and sun they only had to wait a year.
Whatever you make of religion or evolution just know this...RAMEN!
@Obeveklig Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you simbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so
he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman
was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree... yeah, makes perfect sense.
@Obeveklig Looked at your homepage. Looks like you are a 12 year old expert on the subject. Get an education and meanwhile stick to video games and dogs when you comment. Numb nuts!
@Overtheheight Yh, I think it's a shame that young people are being made ignorant of such a wonderful and practically proven theory. Everone thinks that the theory is that one day a monkey gave birth to a Human and that's how the human race evolved. If that it what most people (in England) believe then I am not supprised that very few people believe it.
@12345ISIS12345 Who knows. Maybe they are waiting for it for be completely proven? I don't know how education works there. There are arguments on both sides, such as there are missing models in Evolution, but it might explain the extra bone in the lower region of our back. So maybe it's still in debate.
@Overtheheight I suppose so, but schools are used as a key to become high up in society, if someone wants to be high up in biology then there is practically no poiont in trying untill you have at least a basic understanding of it (that's just my opinion though). I know there are other arguments but there have been multiple examples of micro-evolution, surely they could at least teach that.
@12345ISIS12345 This is slightly off topic, but I wish they would have classes to teach how to make some motorized skates because I'm a huge fan of Air Gear.
you know whats really awesome about science? i can call someone while flying through the air in a jumbo jet while watching a movie...what can you do to even come close to that flying spaghetti monster?
@ivertheheight don't look at the question of whether Darwin was completely correct in 1859. See what modern evolutionary is like today. Go online and watch the PBS Nova Special, "What Darwin Never New." Then get Sean B. Carroll's book on evolution. That's a solid starting point.
@Overtheheight Darwin was a scientist, there is no need to 'believe' in Him, he is dead. However, making sure that you understand his theories is an appropriate level of respect. Understanding how people have criticized him since then is also good scientific practice, Darwin doesn't need to be completely correct, because other scientists will revise his work and fix up problems in his research and understandings. Scence changes/evolves and it is a good thing.
@alangnixon Well, when I said "believe" I didn't mean to worship him or anything, but I did mean it like you said as in understanding his work. Sorry if I wasn't clear on that. I appreciate almost every science in this world because it is part of this world and there is no running away from that.
Can someone sit down with me and tell me everything Evolution is? Where we came from, how things changed, what books to read, etc. There's several different stories to Evolution and I don't know which one to believe. Which is the correct version?
@Overtheheight It will take many years for you to do this, it is a hard slog and no Atheist (most having gone through the process) will tell you otherwise. With evolution we have overwhelming levels of supporting evidence, this makes it difficult for anybody to learn quickly. The basics are easy though. Just do a quick search on the basics of evolution then go read some books on it (ChiTown7721 gave an excellent suggestion).
it doesn't look like spaghetti, it's looks more like "ascaris monster" molded and took a shit out of the colon and made it his "body" or whatever part it is..
@buenaventuradotcom Yes, people need to believe logical things like a man being spoken to by a burning bush, talking snakes, a man building a boat and putting two of every animal on earth in it while a giant flood ravages the entire Earth for 40 days and nights, and a man living inside of a whale. Believing in those things is just as illogical as believing in the Flying Spaghetti Monster. That's the whole point of it. It was made up to point out the ridiculousness of religion.
In fact, when Darwin published Origins, it was generally accepted by the church, which had been encouraging people not to take scripture literally for some time by that point.
you know, people would probably forget darwins name along with many other great scientists that made great discoveries... if creationists had not made such a bit deal about it.
Its funny how people will just make things up and present them as fact. Then stand behind them for milenia. "the Sun goes around the Earth". No, it doesnt here is the proof. Blasphemy. I guess after awhile it will all be proven to be bullshit and for some reason that scares people because they need to believe that life is more than it is.
Omg, how are they on the news, these people are morons. They are so fucking stupid. How can they not know that this is a joke from Dawkins showing the stupidity of religion
but haha what a genious the guy who wrote this letter.
Stating you don't believe in evolution is as ignorant as not believing in gravity or a round earth, which incidentally, the christian bible tought. also, good luck getting five million species of animal on an ark; and you if you say there were less animals back then, it only validates the theory of evolution even more! checkmate.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Since Leftists have truly made their belief system a religion, I think it is proper that they celebrate the birth of Darwin. It is their incredibly sad and pathetic version of Christmas. I mean, I realize Liberals don't want to admit liberalism IS a religion, but hey they dropped the whole "we are open-minded and caring" routine, so that was a step towards honesty. Why not take another step and admit leftism IS a religion. they could start praying in front of Noam Chomsky statues too!
@sirjames45 Oh boy... Compare how influential Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, etc. are to the Conservative/Republican movement with how influential Noam Chomsky is. Conservativeism is more like Religion because like a religion it denies Science. Climate Science is to Conservativism what Evolution is to Christianity.
Let me explain how dumb you are: You use this idiotic Richard DUH-kins illustration to ridicule Creationists, but it's actually evolutionists who believe in a flying spaghetti monster. You see, Creationists believe in animals that exist today, not those that WILL evolve like you believe. YOU believe that animals can give rise to something completely different than themselves. So, FOR YOU, a flying spaghetti monster can evolve. "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools!" Romans 1: 22.
Well as a deeply religious person I find this offensive. Belief in Evolution and the Flying Spaghetti are not incompatible, we're both saying the same thing!
It's exactly the same thing. Evolutionists do believe in a flying spaghetti monster. IF evolution IS true, then one COULD evolve. So they do believe it's possible. Bible-believing Christians, and I am guessing you're NOT one, do have evidence for believing what we believe. I am honest when I say that ULTIMATELY my evidence rests on faith. However, there is TONS of evidence that shows that it takes intelligence to create this world and life. Any other theory lacks intelligence!
@tamarind777 First of all, yeah, We are evolving! That's the beauty of the process that it involves us as well. The other part that is awesome about it is that no intelligence is needed to guide evolution, there's no hindsight that's needed to arrive to the complexity we see in the biosphere. Faith is not evidence, in fact it is the anti-thesis to evidence. faith is an opinion. but don't believe me, read up on it, take a biology class in your local community college.
May the Flying Spaghetti monster curse all those that have no faith in Him. And then we shall kill the non-believers, except for the virgins, which we will taketh onto us and do as we will...
The Theory of Evolution.........is evolving . Darwin was aware that he did not have the Whole Ball of Wax.....but my feeling is that we are getting closer and closer.....and that essentially, Darwin had it right. And in the current Intelligent Design / Evolution debate , I also feel that Mr Darwin would have approved of the Flying Spaghetti Monster

@Obeveklig Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you simbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so
he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman
was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree... yeah, makes perfect sense.

@Overtheheight Yh, I think it's a shame that young people are being made ignorant of such a wonderful and practically proven theory. Everone thinks that the theory is that one day a monkey gave birth to a Human and that's how the human race evolved. If that it what most people (in England) believe then I am not supprised that very few people believe it.
12345ISIS12345 10 months ago
@12345ISIS12345 Who knows. Maybe they are waiting for it for be completely proven? I don't know how education works there. There are arguments on both sides, such as there are missing models in Evolution, but it might explain the extra bone in the lower region of our back. So maybe it's still in debate.
Overtheheight 10 months ago
@Overtheheight I suppose so, but schools are used as a key to become high up in society, if someone wants to be high up in biology then there is practically no poiont in trying untill you have at least a basic understanding of it (that's just my opinion though). I know there are other arguments but there have been multiple examples of micro-evolution, surely they could at least teach that.

@ivertheheight don't look at the question of whether Darwin was completely correct in 1859. See what modern evolutionary is like today. Go online and watch the PBS Nova Special, "What Darwin Never New." Then get Sean B. Carroll's book on evolution. That's a solid starting point.

Overtheheight 11 months ago
@Overtheheight Darwin was a scientist, there is no need to 'believe' in Him, he is dead. However, making sure that you understand his theories is an appropriate level of respect. Understanding how people have criticized him since then is also good scientific practice, Darwin doesn't need to be completely correct, because other scientists will revise his work and fix up problems in his research and understandings. Scence changes/evolves and it is a good thing.

@alangnixon Well, when I said "believe" I didn't mean to worship him or anything, but I did mean it like you said as in understanding his work. Sorry if I wasn't clear on that. I appreciate almost every science in this world because it is part of this world and there is no running away from that.

@Overtheheight It will take many years for you to do this, it is a hard slog and no Atheist (most having gone through the process) will tell you otherwise. With evolution we have overwhelming levels of supporting evidence, this makes it difficult for anybody to learn quickly. The basics are easy though. Just do a quick search on the basics of evolution then go read some books on it (ChiTown7721 gave an excellent suggestion).

Believing in those things is just as illogical as believing in the Flying Spaghetti Monster. That's the whole point of it. It was made up to point out the ridiculousness of religion.

In fact, when Darwin published Origins, it was generally accepted by the church, which had been encouraging people not to take scripture literally for some time by that point.

Stating you don't believe in evolution is as ignorant as not believing in gravity or a round earth, which incidentally, the christian bible tought. also, good luck getting five million species of animal on an ark; and you if you say there were less animals back then, it only validates the theory of evolution even more! checkmate.

Since Leftists have truly made their belief system a religion, I think it is proper that they celebrate the birth of Darwin. It is their incredibly sad and pathetic version of Christmas. I mean, I realize Liberals don't want to admit liberalism IS a religion, but hey they dropped the whole "we are open-minded and caring" routine, so that was a step towards honesty. Why not take another step and admit leftism IS a religion. they could start praying in front of Noam Chomsky statues too!

Let me explain how dumb you are: You use this idiotic Richard DUH-kins illustration to ridicule Creationists, but it's actually evolutionists who believe in a flying spaghetti monster. You see, Creationists believe in animals that exist today, not those that WILL evolve like you believe. YOU believe that animals can give rise to something completely different than themselves. So, FOR YOU, a flying spaghetti monster can evolve. "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools!" Romans 1: 22.

@grimwatcher
It's exactly the same thing. Evolutionists do believe in a flying spaghetti monster. IF evolution IS true, then one COULD evolve. So they do believe it's possible. Bible-believing Christians, and I am guessing you're NOT one, do have evidence for believing what we believe. I am honest when I say that ULTIMATELY my evidence rests on faith. However, there is TONS of evidence that shows that it takes intelligence to create this world and life. Any other theory lacks intelligence!
tamarind777 1 year ago
@tamarind777 First of all, yeah, We are evolving! That's the beauty of the process that it involves us as well. The other part that is awesome about it is that no intelligence is needed to guide evolution, there's no hindsight that's needed to arrive to the complexity we see in the biosphere. Faith is not evidence, in fact it is the anti-thesis to evidence. faith is an opinion. but don't believe me, read up on it, take a biology class in your local community college.
