[a witness for the creationist board in the texas schoolbooks dilemma]

Why do we persist teaching students the religion of atheistic humanism, under the guise of scientific, factual evolution? Which is neither scientific nor factual, when you only present one point of view.

Teaching students that they evolved and are nothing more than animals degrades their quality of life, and robs them of meaning and purpose for life. The twisted reasoning of humanism in seeking to exalt man, reduces him to an animal devoid of will and the ability to choose the virtuous. The fruits of this God-denying teaching are: lying, cheating, stealing, promiscuity, chemical abuse, suicide, crime of all sorts, and a reduction in academic achievement.

There is no factual scientific proof that functional complex life has arisen from disorder by chance. Who are you going to believe - God that was there, or men that weren't?

"Which is neither scientific nor factual, when you only present one point of view."

Woah there. Multiple points of view have nothing to do with how factual or scientific something is. Science isn't about majority rules. It's about preponderance of evidence.

Or maybe it shows people that they can choose their purpose, and they can choose to do good because it is right, instead of out of fear. It also gives a new perspective on where we sit in relation to the other animals, and perhaps shows that we can and should choose to be responsible in matters concerning non-human animals and the rest of the living environment, whether in what we eat or what we do to the patch of pristine forest on the other side of the globe (or the patch across the street from our houses).

As for these so-called 'fruits of God-denying', you realize that many people who don't deny god show some or all of those fruits? Of course, not all of them do, but then neither do all 'god-deniers'. Having a healthy outlook on life (whichever way it is acquired) instead of being brainwashed into fear, guilt and lack of self-worth is what prevents these 'fruits', not any god.

You need to feel important because you're an arrogant, self centered person.
Goddidit is a lazy answer that requires no thought what so ever and can be easily explained and force fed to the masses.
ToE has jackshit to do with morality or substance abuse
Not everyone needs an invisible crutch.
not everyone needs to believe in a skydaddy to find meaning in life. There are many other things to find meaning in. Don't be so narrow minded
Atheism is not a religion and no, you can't just slap any title you want after it. Atheist humanist, atheist secular, atheist potato, it doesn't make a damn difference.
Stop with the false dichotomy already. You IDiots seem to think that it's either evolution or jeebus. It's not.
Finally, there is no debate. You can't argue against reality. Evolution happened and is still happening. The only reason there is any argument is because some tards seem to think it poses a threat to their belief systems and you can't have sheeple wandering from the flock. No sir. Less sheeple, less money.

In conclusion, the IDiots will never win. Theories are invalidated in labs not courtrooms. I'm done ranting.
