    I think any rise of 'secular fundamentalism' is fantasy included in the general persecuted christian fantasy that is popular right now

    there are a couple scientists, couple authors, couple people on the internet

    Thats it, there are no atheist politicans, or any atheist lobby that I know of, outside of some dawkins interviews you rarely even see atheist talking heads on TV, not even on fox as bogeyman.

    actually there is that one guy who sues to take the god stuff of currency, can't remember his name, they do bring him on fox to be a bogeyman

    It is my understanding that there are scientists who have come to the conclusion of intelligent design through scientific study. If the course is presented in such a way as to explore the theory based on their scientific evidence, I see no problem with it being taught as a science course.

    If it is based on the tenants of some particular religion mixed with philosophy, and the interpretation of evidence, though, it does not belong in the science curriculum any more than astrology does.

    Unfortunately no, as it was from a news program over a year ago, and I don't remember what station it was on. I understand your skepticism, and am sorry I have nothing more concrete to back up my statement.

    Hi, Josh, I should have added a "thanks" at the end of my request, as in, I'm not skeptical, just sincerely interested.

    If you happen to recall, it would be great. Thanks.

    ok, you brought me into it...so now there is no proof of God? Although I believe there is a God, whether you do or not, or whether I did or not, I don't think I would run around calling God BS...someday you and I may have to meet whatever God is up there that you are calling BS..

    You proved my point, How can this post be by someone who was designed intelligently? Your postings looks like from someone who was accidentally made or as a result of very bad design. :D

    Like AC, you explain yourself in your posts...you try to trick everyone into believing that you actually know what you are talking about, then when they call you on it, you change the subject and refuse to answer. So again, are you saying there is no proof of God and thinking that there is a God is BS?

    If you are not intelligent enough to understand my post, I try to make it as simple as possible so even you can understand.

    THERE IS NO GOD. THERE IS NO INTELLIGENT DESIGN.

    Is Shakira too advanced for being a part of the evolution?

    By the way, if you want to see someone dance like Shakira, bring up a fish on the land. Maybe the walking leg-fish could dance like that too ;)
