Throw up? Try aneurysm.

to them in school and by the media.

4. How to witness and testify when presented with godless philosophy.
This crap (and the bigotry) is the reason my Southern Baptist parents quit going to church and sent me to Catholic school. The Baptist schools had their science curriculum modeled on the above, unacceptable even for my religious parents.

Suggested texts included "Are You Being Brainwashed" by our fav Dr. Dino Hovind.

Why does everything those people publish look like a cartoon drawn by a semi-talented 2nd grader?????? (One of the links took my to <a href="http://www.drdino.com/" target="_blank">Dr Dino Home</a> and I tend to lose it when I visit that sight)

Why does this God of theirs select morons to spread his word? Is he intimidated by intellectuals?

I wonder how many schools will teach such trash? Certainly no public school could or would.

If you go to the main link you'll see a link to "ask Dr. Creation". Maybe kent hovind, maybe some other idiot. I asked for evidence of a young earth/global flood/against evolution that hasn't been refuted a thousand times.

Any bets on whether or not I'll be told that there's to much dust on the moon, the sun is shrinking etc?

Even more than usual on this subject, I am truly saddened for the kids of America. Nobody outside total wacko cults would dare to teach such tosh to children in Britain.

The site is not without its humour though.

That'd be a yes, then...

Never mind that. with this sort of thing they won't be ready at all for the real world period. No wonder so many of this sort of Christian join mind control cults like Koresh's and Jones'. They're not use to thinking for themeselves.

I say the same for the US. The problem is that the wacko cults are more numerous and more vocal here.

From the site:

Not most of the ones I've ever seen. Do you suppose they're finding their scientists at ICR?

Wasn't it Steve Jones who commented that creationists are "people who tell lies to schoolchildren"?

Check out this whopper:

"What do most scientists say? 10-15 billion years ago a big bang sent many pieces of rock and matter into space."

pieces of Rocks???

Or this howler:
"What do most scientists say? Most textbooks and scientists tell us that the Geologic Column is the record of what is actually found ie. Uniform layers neatly organized with the oldest life forms on the bottom layer and the most recent life forms on the top."

Uniform layers neatly organized??? Man, I gotta talk to my geology prof--she *definitely* missed mentioning that one....

Or this one:
"* Micro evolution / speciation is simply different breeds or versions of the same animal."

It is apalling to see Christians lying so blatantly to their children.
