I\'m all hopped up on vicodine from surgery yesterday so I\'m not going to try to debate this yet.  Just does anyone else feel like this nation is starting to become a joke with stuff like this?

Ummm, forgive my ignorance,

what does "intelligent design" really mean?  I think I understand the word "Evolution", but I don\'t think I heard of the term "intelligent design" before...

Off of dictionary.com

"a theory that nature and complex biological structures were designed by intelligent beings and were not created by chance"

In other words, it\'s the belief that the world is too complex for things to have just evolved this way.  That instead their had to of been an outside force such as god creating it.

Why is it when I went to school none of this shit came up? This is retarded kids can\'t even say the pledge of allegiance anymore every morning. Its a damn shame that they have to fight about petty shit like this, teach darwinism as a science you can\'t prove intelligent design so it should be a none subject. Next we\'ll have two science classes one for religous bible thumpers and the other one for whoever cares.

Aliens created us? I know for sure that Pugs were dropped off by aliens to keep their large eye balls on us tail-less monkeys.

Not aliens, God. God created us. That\'s the debate. Those supporting it call it "intelligent design" so they don\'t have to say "God" even though they do. It\'s just another example of crazed Catholics trying to integrate religion into the school systems.

Oh, and Gman, pugs? You are a strange, strange individual...

Catholics? I think you mean....Christian Fundementalists. After all, the Pope himself (the recently deceased) acknowledged the Theory of Evolution.

And yes. Pugs. Have you seen these little creatures that pass off themselves as dogs? Even the movie, Men In Black, had used them as aliens.

All you have to do is wrap yer noggin around the vast, vast amounts of time involved here, and evolution is the clear winner. Look at humans. Average height 100 years ago was like 5\'5". Anyone over 6\' was a giant. And the bible-thumpers will say, "well, we have better food and medicine now"... Exactly. The ability for environmental factors such as food supply to shape a species proves evolution\'s validity. I can\'t believe humans can be so fucking arrogant to assume to be created by some magic man in the sky. We\'re essentially insects in the universe.

Created by theists who can\'t contend with evolution. Intelligent design has no scientific backing or evidence and is just something that is basically Creationism with different words.

It\'s funny how those who support intelligent design choose to completely ignore one side of reality. Human beings are perfect creations? Then how do you explain goose bumps, allergies, and the coccyx - features that are useless? Even in the past two months we have seen the bird flu virus evolve into a potent threat against humans.

Well, every currency has "In God We Trust". And when you promise to tell the truth and nothin\' but, yer left hand is on the Bible. Presidents make their oath on the Bible. There\'s a Christmas tree in the Whitehouse. We have Dec. 25th off, traditionally a religious Holiday, now the euphemism is "Winter Holidays" or something.

You can\'t wholy seperate religion. It\'s part of our culture. Tolerance is the key to being a good Christian. Don\'t believe me? I kill ya if you don\'t. Heathen. :mad:
