| I could care less which religion the founding fathers were - who lived 230 years ago. Does that mean that Christianity needs to be a part of this country for eternity because a lot of "the founding fathers" were Christian and we have to follow in their footsteps? Huh? Nooo way.
"Just as this document has made claims we now know as false so has the theory of evolution had it's own false claims. In my opinion both are nothing but theories and as such deserve equal attention by science. "
You're comparing the SCIENTIFIC theory of evolution to creation story of the Bible? What? You are whacked out! Creationism is not a theory, it's a idea, it has no science behind it. Whenever you introduce a deity into a theory it is NO LONGER a SCIENTIFIC theory. It is theology or philosophy which does not belong in a Biology classroom, it belongs in a world religions classroom. I'm pretty sure every damned kid in Bio class has had creationism pounded into their head 100x more than evolution theory. Balance my ass.
Yes, evolution is a theory that has changed over time but that's how science works. And with the aliens...even if aliens put us here...where the hell did THEY come from? Same questions arise obviously.
"The real issue here is that the oldest theory "
Older, not oldest. Christianity is not the oldest religion to include creationism. Older theory does not a better theory make, probably the opposite. Remember, evolution is not atheistic.
"I believe the real reason is they fear this theory."
Mmm..k? lol
