"Intelligent design" made by unintelligent dick-heads :)

"why is evolution theory going to be forced down my daughter's throat when she is of age to go to college"

I hardly think being required to have a good understanding of a subject constitutes it being "forced down" one's throat.

@sol3a1 God has lived forever, what is wrong with a 2000 old year book, to him is a today book and so it is for his children, an as old as it is it tells your destiny, but many have fear of what it says because it tells them their destiny if they do not repent and submit to God. I do not marvel at nothing, the world have technology because God allows it, he is the giver of all these, but when he say the word it will be over.

@freedomalert - "All these Evolution leaders are but puppets of the devil" funny that. I'd say you religious types whose slavish adherence to 2000 year old books written by people who marveled at the technology of the wheelbarrow smacks of being decieved and duped by some evil force that would have humanity be ignorant and sheep to be fleeced and worse by the "pastors" who are all too happy to take your money, wives, daughters and sons in too many cases.

Evolution is also religion masquerade as science in order to feed it in the classrooms to innocent middle school children and turned them against their creator. All these Evolution leaders are but puppets of the devil. Shame on you!

the point of intelligent design is that everything in the universe has a purpose and are tailor made

@0099wrestler John 1:1, (Logos) is of course just the ancient Greek idea that without Logic there is nothing but Chaos. Indeed God couldn't have said 'Let there be light' without logic. It would have ben meaningless. Logic is more fundamental than even God.  This is pure Pythagoras.

"I want to know WHY i exist!"

There may or may not be a definite "meaning" to life...most people give their own life meaning, finding family, humanitarianism, religion, some or all of those- or perhaps something else. I personally have no problem (and am actually quite refreshed) with the possibility of their being no "purpose" or "special creation" of human beings- it leaves us free to choose how to live life, and as you put it, why to live life

Evolution is "forced down their throats" in the same sense as the periodic table (atomic theory), cell structure/function (cell theory), plate tectonics (and the accompanying theory), as well as gravity, germs, and many other fields of scientific knowledge are. Terribly sorry to all those who think a meaningful, substantial (and perhaps most importantly, accurate) education isn't important.

@happypitfiend It is possible that if you use science with the Bible, that a greater understanding may come. Evolution is in the Bible, and the Bible demands science enters into reveal the deeper mysteries. It is likely that you never applied scientific methods to the Bible.
