:Obviously, Rootpilots6 does not know the history
 +
behind Pastafarianism because it ''was'' created as a
 +
mock religion to protest the actual allowing of
 +
creationism to be taught in shools. They did do that.
 +
:Contrary to your belief, the creator of
 +
Pastafarianism did have a long rational debate at the
 +
Kansas State Board of Education. With their descision
 +
continue to allow the teaching of Creationism, The
 +
creator of Pastafarianism proposed that the theory
 +
according to the Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti
 +
Monster should be taught in schools to as a
 +
''satire''. Satires are certainly not childish.
 +
:Now if you would suggest that a neutral classroom
 +
should introduce all theories into the clasroom, why
 +
would they only introduce the ''Christian'' theory.
 +
That's Christian spin. None of these other theories
 +
are based on scientific method except for Evolution
 +
which is why it is inane to introduce a massive amount
 +
of theological theories into the classroom that have
 +
no scientific merit whatsoever.
 +
:Yet, all of these early creationist scientists didn't
 +
actually study any science that would have
 +
contradicted the Bible. However, this changed with
 +
Charles Darwin. He never doubted the Bible as being
 +
literal until his studies based on scientific method
 +
contradicted the Bible. Nor did science only arise
 +
because of a Christian creationist point of view. In
 +
fact, the most contributing era to science was the
 +
classical antiquity period which was before
 +
Christianity arose.
 +
:And yes, that is the reason that most other civilised
 +
countries teach only evolution in their schools.
 +
:Now if we don't have to teach any theories based on
 +
Zeus, Brahman, Russell's teapot, or even the Flying
 +
Spaghetti Monster, why should we have to teach
 +
theories based on the Christian viewpoint of a deity
 +
which doesn't follow scientific method either?
 +
:Yes, it would be biased to only include the Christian
 +
God's theory. Please explain to me why the other
 +
deities are of less significance. At the moment, the
 +
naturalist theory is looked at because it is the only
 +
one of all of them that is based on ''scientific
 +
method''. Now that is definitely fair.
 +
:Yet again, the bias from religious pressure groups is
 +
the promotion of a theory that is not based on
 +
scientific method. Atheist pressure groups are
 +
actually promoting Evolution which is based on
 +
scientific method.
 +
:It does actually make sense that religion has been
 +
used to invoke power on the gullible. History shows
 +
it.
 +
:Now you missed something here... Christians are
 +
trying to impose their ''pseudoscientific'' views onto
 +
the classroom while atheists are trying to impose
 +
their ''scientific'' views on the classroom.
 +
:Your argument is ironically the one that is
 +
one-sided: Christian biased sided. However, I will
 +
admit that I am biased to science. [[User:Wolverhampton|Wolverhampton]] 19:11, 4 January 2008 (EST)
