Lies in the Christian Textbooks (Part 1)

After growing up in a christian school, I looked back at one of my old textbooks and was appalled at what I had been taught. My intentions are to go over the obvious lies in the textbook and attempt to explain why there are so many adamant creationists out there...

(I'll give you a hint: It's because we're taught that creation is scientific and we can't trust evolutionist scientists because they aren't following God. So no matter what evidence they have, their analysis must be misguided.)

Textbook:
Science: Order and Reality, 2nd edition; A Beka Book #25909014

Sorry about the audio quality, I'll try to find a more acoustically "sound" room for future parts.

...This is criticism and covered under fair use...

if u think God isnt real then try to prove the Bible wrong and then you will relise that there is no gap in the Bible

[MasterChifa]

Proving/Disproving the bible does not prove God.

Using that logic, if I was to write an historically accurate book with no internal inconsistencies and that book proclaims me as God. Then I must be God.

This isn't about disproving the bible, just something I've wondered about. Does it strike you as odd, that God's chosen people are chosen based on a lie?

Esau should have been the father of the Isrealites, but Jacob lied to his father to get the blessing and thus became the father of Isreal.

[fergetitnot456]

But he did'nt lie to him and getting that blessing had nothing to do with become king of Isreal it was all a mirical of God because Jacob's brothers were the ones who lied to get Jacob out of the way because they sold him to some merchants heading to Isreal and there they sold him to the marketplace and he was broght to the kings kingdom by some of his servents and there he became the king's right hand man and therefore became the king later on

I think you're confusing Joseph's story with Jacob's. Jacob fathered 12 sons who spawn the 12 tribes of Israel. Joseph is one of those 12.

The story I'm talking about is where Jacob wears the goat skin to fool his father into giving him Esau's blessing. (Gen 27)

My reading of the account leads me to believe that the blessing Jacob stole from his brother Esau is the reason that Jacob gets the covenant with God, which establishes the Israelites.

thats not wat it says im reading it right now!!!!

[MasterChifa]

Perhaps you have a different version? I begin on p. 353 and end on the final paragraph of that page. I omitted one parenthesis and one definition.

The parenthesis was:

...nothing more than compositions of earthly materials [This was no doubt a distortion of the truth that God Created man from the dust of the ground.]

The definition:

...called evolution [which begins with some form of spontaneous generation and continues with living things giving rise to other forms of living things.]

@117DieHard Ahem... This is my new account and err, were you around when dinosaurs were around? Neither were the writers. They were around before the flood as said by the Bible

[117DieHard]

@fergetitnot456 OMG where are the dinosaurs!?!? not in there lol :p

[117DieHard]

you clearly dont understand that they are both made from protons, neutrons and electrons and emotions are a series of action-formations induced by chemicals that we observe in our daily lives- like batteries for instance.

Evolution is not science... according to evolution we came from a rock. Don't believe me? : I read a evolution time line and it says: Earth created, rain falls on oldest know rocks and creates first life. THAT IS NOT SCIENCE! THAT IS A FAIRY TALE! We did not come from rocks! In the Bible it says somewhere : "And they will say to a rock: Hath thou brought me forward?" ( meaning humans thinking they came from rocks)

All you're really saying is that your former religious indoctrination has been undone by your current secular indoctrination. To pretend one is different than that other is not intellectually honest. Both sides have evidence in every related field -- the difference is in worldview.

@MasterChifa Im in 7th grade now and i think you are absolutley right. I am also using the same a beka book program showed. The video classes are sooo old they look like they are from the 50s and the books are from the 40s!!!

[wabashalwaysfights5]

Very good vid. This type of persuasive writing can be found in our history books as well. Does this make me denounce my belief that there is a higher being? No. But it does shed light on the fact that the majority of us are blind to the manipulation taking place right under our noses. I don't understand why we are so afraid to question everything. People lie on a daily basis to each other and yet we blindly believe everything we're shown on the news? Wake up people.

John Mc Cain grew up in a CMA Church?



[Funnygirlstuff]

your movie is so bad, not even real facts.

Even so your just arguing about old books, in stead of the the real Word of God.

Try to study that first.
