The Bias of The Evolution Debate

Evolution has really been in the public eye as of late. Particularly in schools. In Georgia on textbooks that taught evolution they had a sticker that said: "This textbook contains material on evolution. Evolution is a theory, not a fact, regarding the origin of living things. This material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully, and critically considered."

They had a judge remove it... That is so blatantly wrong it pissed me off to the extreme. Schools are one giant institution of misinformation. They just make kids believe blindly what they teach as fact. All the sticker is saying is approach this material with an open mind, and dont take it as fact, until you consider, and weigh the evidence. It should say that about the whole textbook in my view. Its hard to break out of the beliefs that society plants in us about the world. Since we have been taught certain things are "fact" for so long. They dont teach us how to think for our self. Just to believe what other people labeled scientist believe. I am not saying that "necessarily" evolution is false,(even though I believe it doesnt explain everything) but that parading it around as truth is bullshit. How can we in our arrogance believe we even know anything? I used to think we knew most everything, and things had worked perfectly. But in reality its crap. We dont KNOW hardly ANYTHING. Most of science is guesses. At Davisco (a local cheese plant), our precise machines break down all the time. And its probably rare to the extreme for one piece of cheese to come out exactly the same as the last, and I mean rare! There are so many factors like moisture, fat, protien, salt, texture, accidents, vat conditions, etc that change it. Its probably impossible. We dont even know 1 percent of the knowledge of the world. Do we know anything EXACTLY? No, and we probably never will, its all guesses and appoximations.

So I would say that the theory of evolution is just that, a theory. I think if they are going to teach evolution they should also present intelligent design as an alternative. Give kids some facts, and let them decide what is right instead of feeding them this propaganda bullshit about what is fact, and what is not. We are destroying our young kids minds, and not allowing them to think analytically about the evidence and draw their own conclusions. Instead we just blindly go to books, and take what we read in them as facts. Albert Einstein would be appalled. He never went with the mainstream, and he THOUGHT of his OWN ideas. He would not even be famous if he just took the works of scientists of his day as divine truths. He weighed all the evidence, and came to his own conclusion. Unlike our schools teach us how to do. By the way he believed in a higher power.

So if there is a seperation of church and state either remove evolution or start teaching that there COULD be an alternative. Because in my mind teaching evolution is unconstitutional. Its a religion. So, if you dont remove evolution then you should also present intelligent design, and let the children decide. What the scientific community is doing is wrong to the extreme. We call this prejudice. "An adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts." If we dont give kids knowledge of both sides, then we are acting in a manner that is no better then what Adolf Hitler did to Germany with his media misinformation, and propaganda.

If evolution isnt a religion I dont know what is. They have faith in their theorys, and pursue them with insane devotion, and basically gives a theory of how our world came to be, just like the bible. Their God is evolution, and their Jesus is Darwin. Simple as that. You can resist this paragraph if you want, but if you DARE to think about it, its true. Evolution is simply a different religion, and may be backed up with SOME scientific fact, but must be taken largely on faith because it does not explain everything. Contrary to what you have been taught by society.

Here is my logic. If evolution is such an undesutable fact then it should hold up to scutiny right? So why are scientists so afraid to subject their beliefs to even the REMOTEST POSSIBLITY of God? Maybe because deep down they know what is right, and what is wrong... Its called a Conscious... Where do you think that came from? God perhaps... Or was it Darwin?
