Religious people are quite hypocrites when it comes to science. Those who still believe that the Earth was created in six days about 5000 years ago neglect the vast amount of scientific evidence that shows that the Earth is about 4.54 billion years old. For a most stupid assertion please watch Ted Haggard ridicule himself in Richard Dawkins’ documentary The Root Of All Evil?. Evolution to them is either a lie spread by the devil or a diversion planned by God to test our faith. Bollocks I say.
But then again you see “alternative medicine” methods using phrases such as “quantum healing". Or Muslim clerics saying that “modern science had at last provided evidence that Mecca was the true centre of the Earth”. Yes, you read correctly. I ask myself: 1) since when does a religion care about scientific evidence? and 2) how the hell can be a point on the surface of an ellipsoid be it’s centre? … … …
And of course you see religion pose as the very thing it hates: science. Yes, I am talking about Intelligent Design. The moment a Theory involves God it stops being science and becomes religion. I am appalled at the number of schools in the USA that want to get evolution out of science class and put Intelligent Design instead. I wonder how the Pope would react if we started teaching abiogenesis in church, instead of the Bible?
But there is still hope! The National Center for Science Education “put[s] out the fires” of creationism. Let’s give them our support!
I want to finish this post by giving you this link to Expelled Exposed, a website that exposes all the mischievous facts about Ben Steins movie on Intelligent Design Expelled. If you see him, please punch him in the head.
