Hardcore
LOL re creationist
the same reason the pythagorean theorem should be taught in geometry classes
But it's just a theorem![]()
Because it's science.
Why do people want creationism taught in science classes?
And what reason is that; state it.
science should be taught in science classes
etc
it's a really simple concept
More specifically, it's theory. Both are theories. Why do theories have your panties in a bunch?
Yea, cos creationism wouldn't be based on science; just magic.![]()
Evolution is a scientific theory.
Why do people want creationism taught in science classes?
It's a theory; both theories can be taught within the confines of science. This is painfully obvious to anyone who is not a hardcore .
What is the scientific theory of creationism?
creationism isn't a theory. at least not in the context of a scientific theory. any idea that comes out of a brain fart might be a "theory" in a colloquial sense. it has an entirely different definition/application in academia
the one time you are correct, you are trying to be sarcastic, sad. creationism isn't based on science or the scientific method (experimentation and observation... conclusions are derived from evidence). creationism begins with the conclusion that biblical texts are infallible/accurate and works backwards to try (and fail) to prove it up
see above. creationism is not a theory. it cannot be taught within the confines of science, since it is incompatible with the body of evidence. nor was the "theory" derived using the scientific method of experimentation and observation, and deriving conclusions from evidence. rather, it begins with it's conclusion
just for reference, derp, here's how dictionary.com will help you understand.
definition 1 is the useful one for us here, in the context of science and academia (although i will say they are inaccurate in calling a "law" a synonym. laws are generally able to be expressed as a mathematical construct). definition 2 is probably what you are thinking of, and represents the more colloquial usage of the word
noun, plural theories.1.a coherent group of tested general propositions, commonly regardedas correct, that can be used as principles of explanation andprediction for a class of phenomena:Einstein's theory of relativity.
Synonyms: principle, law, doctrine.
2.a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural and subject toexperimentation, in contrast to well-established propositions that areregarded as reporting matters of actual fact.Synonyms: idea, notion hypothesis, postulate.
Antonyms: practice, verification, corroboration, substantiation.
Science trumps all. But science only has a theory for so long. Where did the matter from the big bang theory come from? Where did the nothingness come from?
the origin of the matter, or specifically, the energy/heat is an unknown.
i dont think it makes sense to ask where nothingness came from. the lack of something wouldn't have an origin, by definition.
That's the great thing about science. It's OK with unknowns and theories can change when new evidence is discovered.
Agreed, but your ALWAYS going to run into the "but where did that come from? Issue. It's an issue that the more the thinks about it the more your head hurts. Matter cannot be created not destroyed so where did it come from? And religion can't answer that either. If God created everything/anything, where did he come from? Neither will ever fully answer those questions.
Religion claims it does.
God always has been, according to religion.
I have a theory you molest kids. Should we teach that in science classes too?
