Do you think creationism should be taught in school as a credible alternative to evolution? [Spirituality & Religion]

If so, how do you feel special creation meets the criteria for a science in the way that the theory of evolution does?

Creation should be taught because it's common sense. Evolution is just a theory made up by liberals.

@USAalltheway the myth of creation is just that. Common sense says religion is bunk.

@USAalltheway It's remarkable that you feel an unsupported, unnecessary claim that everything was blinked into existence by a magical entity whose own existence is itself completely unexplained can be characterised as common sense.

How long would any creationism class take? How long would one need in order to say 'goddit... now stop asking questions or you'll be put to death'?

@newjaninev2 That's the beauty of common sense. You can learn it right away. You don't have to spend hours reading a book or listening to a teacher.

@MasterLee So in other words you're a liberal.

@USAalltheway conservative libertarian to be more precise

@USAalltheway Yes, no need to let pesky facts, reality, or reason get in the way of convenient self-deception.

If the evidence intrudes, simply ignore it

Almost makes one nostalgic for the Dark Ages!

@newjaninev2 Facts don't apply to the real world. Facts are just another academic system made up by ivory league liberals.

@MasterLee You're just saying that because you're a liberal.

Gravity is a silly fact

@USAalltheway again facts are meaningless to you

@newjaninev2 No, it's common sense.

@Celine So if you don't agree with someone they're automatically a troll? I guess liberals aren't so tolerant after all.

@Celine Common sense doesn't need explaining. That's the beauty of it.

@Celine No, you just don't understand how common sense works because you're a liberal.

Trolls seem to have the same affliction.
