Fool me once shame on you; fool me twice, I'm a closet homoloveual.

wot.
That was what YOU were saying, hence the "tl;dr version".

And I'm not in the closet.

o ok

Believe what you want to believe. As long as it's not creationism. :D

When, anyways? I don't remember.

So, you're trolling trollers?
Indeed.

Whatever the case, just get out, and stop trying to be witty and fail. You're annoying, and obviously find it funny. Go away.

I don't see what the problem is with a school teaching creationism. My school teaches creationism. It also teaches Evolution. The teachers are unbiased in their teachings. No one says "Evolution is definite truth" or "Creationism is the real cause behind our existence". The teachers teach you both of them, and youre left to choose which one you believe in. The fact that were taught both is, well, helpful. It allows us to be understanding of other people who may not believe the same as us. It's what a school is there for, to prepare us for life outside of school. By teaching us both the concepts, were preparing for working with multi-cultural communities. I'm a ferm believer in evolution, yet some of my friends and even my best friend is religious and I have no doubt that they believe in creationism or similar religious views. The fact that I learn about creationism and other religions just helps with the fact that I can understand AND respect someone else with different views. Which, appears to be something many of you can't do online. I mean no offence by it, but I'm able to show respect, understanding and the ability to be moral on the Internet, so why is it so many of you can't? That goes down to both getting on with people who show different religious views, as well to people who show different views of anything.
Which is where I guess I say that I can't believe how immature and pathetic some of you can be by not being able to simply forgive and forget a person for saying some things which you don't agree with. In which case I mean the fact that you guys (or simply a small minority of you) can't get o er yourselves and leave people like Makingblah alone.
Yes, he has said some things which you don't agree with.
Yes, he has replied and retorted to your opinions too.
But, I don't see him purposelly following you around on the forums just to make shallow pathetic 'Gay' jokes. Yeah, perhaps you found a weakness in his character, but that doesn't mean you should follow on at him with attacks at it.
I doubt he or many others who have had similar attacks against them would completely go out of there way to piss you guys off.
I'm half expecting the same people to follow up with comments against me like "blah'sButtbuddy" or "Gay", but that's okay because I know how stupid you people look, incapable of forgiving a person you hardly know, and who you have only gotten a slight bit of their meanings from. :/

I was going to say something similar, but then lost my train of thought. :c But you'll completely right and worded it very well. Very wise words from a nice boy. <3

Because teaching is against the law.

There is just too much evidence supporting evolution for Creationcigarettes to bash it.

And by "Creationcigarettes," I don't mean anyone who believes in a god. I mean the "hardcore" people who believe that

God placed the skeletons of imaginary beasts under the earth to sway us from our path to something something something! The dinosaurs were killed in a huge flood! Blah blah blah Satan blah blah blah evolution blah blah blah rock music.
My 2nd grade teacher actually attempted to teach us that the dinosaurs were killed by some gigantic flood, and "Noah couldn't fit them in his ark!"

Idiots...

Schools should teach people what creationism is, but in the case with the Golapogas islands, they teached it as a fact. It makes me angry and sad at the same time. I know people who've dedicated their lives to prove evolution, and these people still say it's wrong, or are just completely ignorant of it.

If it makes you feel any better, there are still people who dedicate there lives to proving creationism in a way people will generally accept.   :cookieMonster:

Even so, they shouldn't teach any very unsure topic factually, and should allow free choice to students.

Very true, but all this carbon dating and stuff. It's the fact that science is there to answer questions, and when they do, some people just can't believe it and go into all out denial. Creationism is wrong. There have been too many items and facts proving that the Earth was not made 10,000 years ago. Carbon dating has been used to date many many items and/or fossils. It's very accurate, and there have been things that go over 10,000 years.

It just made me so disappointed they could teach something that is proved to be completely wrong. Of course, if you want to be a hardcore bible believer, that's fine; I don't personally agree with it, but it doesn't mean you're a bad person or anything.

Anyways, I'm going to lock this before it gets out of control. I was very angry at the time, but don't feel the same way anymore. I suppose it is a choice if you want to believe it.  :cookieMonster:
