Favorite scene from "Inherit the Wind", a movie about the creationism vs. evolution trial when a teacher is accused of the crime of teaching evolution to his class.
These are the comments made by the authors of the play: "Inherit the Wind is not history. The events which took place in Dayton, Tennessee, during the scorching July of 1925 are clearly the genesis of this play. It has, however, an exodus entirely of its own. [. . .] The collision of Bryan and Darrow at Dayton was dramatic, but it was not a drama. Moreover, the issues of their conflict have acquired new dimension and meaning in the thirty years since they clashed at the Rhea County Courthouse. So Inherit the Wind does not pretend to be journalism. It is theatre. It is not 1925. The stage directions set the time as "Not too long ago." It might have been yesterday. It could be tomorrow." (Lawrence and Lee 1955)

If you think this play was about Evolution vs. Creationism, you have missed the point. It is about the application of Proverbs 11:29 in your life. The center point of the play is not the national furor Rev Brown created over some silly controversy, but rather the tragedy of what his SIN caused for his family and ultimately his community.
You ever heard the phrase " a man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still "? This is not a venue where any one is going to be convinced of something different than what they want to believe. I like TGS, but some of the guys in here are just obnoxious, rude and frankly, too friggin religious about their evolution religion. I am not religious and i don't care to catch flies, lol.... thanks for your comment though.
You ever heard the phrase "you catch more flies with honey than vinegar?" If you really want to convince people here of your argument, you're going to have to argue from a philosophical standpoint, not a religous one.
Yeah, it was Jesus' CHOICE because he liked S&M, when god (who was Jesus, ergo he likes S&M too) could have simply "saved us" through but a simple thought. Instead he wanted to get crucified in the middle of the desert. That makes perfect sense and isn't the least bit sadistic.
Yes, legions of angels with wings on their backs and pretty mistletoes around their ears. Give me a break. Somehow, shit like that doesn't happen after we invented video cameras.
@Kruttkuse U can shut your lousy mouth too krutt, i've read your posts, don't come in trying to be the peace maker, you 're just another that is consumed with lies and all eat up with faith in evolution... you and plagued man are just way too religious for me !! Your religion is the root of the abortion holocaust. Sick idiots like you two will one day answer for your actions. I wash my hands of the both of you.
Well, you just made the baby Jesus cry. Read up on the scientific method, sir. Stop trying to press your religious non-sense upon others. Start living your life either as your bible tells you to, or stop pretending to.
