Dude this is a cringefest waiting to happen

But shit niggas be curious

[dead man]

had no idea this was happening

noice

[oats]

exactly how I feel. I can't for the life of me take creationism seriously as a science - and having taught science, it's a complete mystery how I could even teach creationism. Like, chapter 1, the universe was created, and now it's here. The end. idk, seems ridiculous, and so far haven't heard anything very compelling from the creationist. I'm hoping he does say something though.

was totally going to haha... putting it off til tomorrow but I can take a stab at how it ends

another religion vs science thread?

cmon guys.

[oats]

I actually genuinely appreciate the existence of religion, and think there is much of value to religious participation. but it's not an acceptable foundation for science.

Just saw this link, havent read it though;

Bill Nye, from what I gather from following him on twitter, is a legit and respected scientist, yes.

I will definitely watch this later, I hope Bill goes in.

@Bags Bill Nye was an aeronautical engineer for Boeing before he created his show. He's a legitimate scientist. But @uh-oh is correct - there were many opportunities where Bill could've gone for the jugular but didn't. He's a great ambassador for science, and came off as very respectful, but was at times too nice I think. Still easily won though imo.

[veritas]

I differ. Evolution takes more faith to believe than creation.

[Alphabet]

lol attt the tag.

and @Masaii dope shit one that article, basically what I've believed since I was a child.. cool to see similar ideologies coming to light and getting notice in the scientific community.

[Ghost1]

LOL yes. The world of science has finally recognized your ideoligies from daycare.

[uh-oh]

i watched probably 2/3 of this earlier

the creationists are insane. bill nye is logical. nothing surprising to see here
