Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. (JN 8:32)
Quecat, you owe me an apology for censoring me.
Because the LORD considers it a holy day, anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to death. Exodus 31:12-15
And the christians think science is dangerous. Nothing is more dangerous than the disgusting christian death cult. This website is full of examples of the bloodthirsty god the gullible christians worship:

Why the Bible is so dangerous, and why the Bible was the best friend of the Christian slave owners:
If you buy a Hebrew slave, he is to serve for only six years. Set him free in the seventh year, and he will owe you nothing for his freedom. If he was single when he became your slave and then married afterward, only he will go free in the seventh year. But if he was married before he became a slave, then his wife will be freed with him. If his master gave him a wife while he was a slave, and they had sons or daughters, then the man will be free in the seventh year, but his wife and children will still belong to his master. But the slave may plainly declare, 'I love my master, my wife, and my children. I would rather not go free.' If he does this, his master must present him before God. Then his master must take him to the door and publicly pierce his ear with an awl. After that, the slave will belong to his master forever. (Exodus 21:2-6 NLT)
The barbaric god of the bible is strongly in favor of murder:
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Take the blasphemer outside the camp, and tell all those who heard him to lay their hands on his head. Then let the entire community stone him to death." (Leviticus 24:10-16 NLT)
If the bible is correct, god should be thrown in prison or executed. The god of the bible is by far the most disgusting god ever invented. The same people who believe in this mythical supernatural savage are the anti-science flat-earthers who deny the evidence for evolution.
seedplanter has been censoring comments? Very interesting. Just when I thought my opinion of seedplanter couldn't possibly get any lower, I find out he censors people who are trying to help him understand science.
I noticed two of agentorange's comments were censored. I'm concerned about this censorship. I didn't serve in the US Army so there could be censorship in this country.
By the way, Ben Stein said "We just want free speech." What he really means is he wants to force science teachers to spread the same lies about science he's been spreading. That's not called free speech, it's called destroying science education. People can spread all the lies they want, but they got a lot of nerve if they think they can force science teachers to do their lying for them.
The censorship I don't like is when anyone is censored on a blog. I don't care if I agree with them or not, censorship is wrong.
seedplanter, instead of babbling about christians who were against slavery, while ignoring the obvious fact all American slave owners were christians who used the bible to justify slavery, why don't you tell us why you are unable to understand simple scientific facts like natural selection.
"Evolutionary theory itself doesn't say racism is good, but it is possible that you could justify a racist stance upon it"
No. It's not possible for a person who understands human evolution to justify racism. Read my previous comments to understand why the understanding of evolution would eliminate racism.
Since there are still millions of Christian racists in America, we need more evolution education in this country. Creationists like Ben Stein want to destroy science education. The creationists are part of the problem.
Slacker: "What evidence?"
It's on this thread. See my comments and see the comments of agentorange and others.
"What evidence?" This is more proof I was correct when I compared talking to a creationist to talking to a dog.
Are you sure you want to claim slavery has nothing to do with racism. I noticed those Christians who used the Bible to justify slavery didn't own any white slaves.
"I clearly stated that evolution itself does not say one way or the other, but racism can be justified using evolution"
Your "racism can be justified using evolution" is not correct and the exact opposite is true.
I clearly explained understanding evolution would eliminate racism, because people who understand human evolution know why there are differences in skin color. Did you bother to read the website I recommended?
crc, you have no evidence for your childish beliefs, so of course you threaten me like you did just now.
crc, read and understand all the comments. If you don't want to do that, then don't be too surprised if you are laughed at.
I will give you credit for one thing, crc. Any intelligent young person reading your comments, your dishonesty, and your complete inability to understand anything, would not want to have anything to do with your anti-science anti-common-sense religion. You, crc, are the best advertisement for atheism there could possibly be.
crc: "The great thing about becoming a Christian creationist is that we have thoroughly and with an open mind explored both sides of the argument while the evolutionists has not."
You are lying.
You have not made one attempt to understand the evidence that was shown to you on this thread. Your laziness is obvious. You dishonesty is even more obvious. Your brainwashing is extremely obvious. You, crc, are strong evidence a god-soaked mind is unable to understand anything.
"What lying do we do?" Just about everything creationists say about evolution is lying. A lot of the lying is obviously intentional, and a lot of the lying is because they are willfully ignorant. I suggest you and others, Chris333, actually read the comments of people who understand evolution better than you do, instead of repeating the same lies over and over again.
Christians here, including you Chris333, are constantly repeating the lie that evolution equals racism, even after it's explained to them the understanding of evolution would eliminate racism. Do you and others here bother to read all the comments? You people repeat some lie, then it's explained that you are wrong, then you immediately repeat the same lie again. Talking to a creationist is a lot like talking to a dog, except the dog is more likely to actually learn something. I suggest pay attention, read all the comments, and try THINKING. Thinking is not a sin. Thinking will not send you to your mythical hell.
By the way, every single slave owner in American history was a Christian who used the Bible to justify slavery. Despite the constant lying of creationists like Stein and some people on this blog, understanding evolution would eliminate the racism so many Christians continue to have today.
Sorry, but your "What lying do we do?" is a dumb question because nobody is more dishonest than a creationist.
Gen1_28m, your question was so incredibly dumb I'm not going to waste time on it.
agentorange, I assume you realize you would have better luck explaining science to a dog.
Also, Christians, who have a long history of racism that continues today, have got a lot of nerve to spread lies about evolution, especially since it is obvious they know nothing about evolution.
It's bad enough Christians are so ignorant, it's even worse they are constantly lying about everything.
Christians, grow up, educate yourselves, face facts, and for goodness sakes stop your constant lying.
"to say that evolution can promote racism is not insulting to scientists"
I explained at least 3 times on this thread why evolution does not promote racism. I also said if everyone had a good understanding of the evolution of humans, there would be no racists.
I'm not going to explain it a 4th time, so if anyone is interested go back in this thread and read what I said about Vitamin D.
Or you could read this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_skin_color
"evolution can promote racism" is LYING. People should not be spreading lies about something they know nothing about.
"Only the most recent and even stupider religions like mormanism, scientology and 'jedi' and a few others are more recent than christianity."
agentorange, your comments are always excellent and very accurate, but I would not call any religion more "stupider" than christianity. All religions are equal, equally insane. It's a minor point and I'm nitpicking, but I don't want christians to think they are any less insane than any other religious people. Christians believe jesus rose from the dead to become a zombie that then flew up to the clouds. It really is impossible to be any more insane than that.
"Repent- and ask forgiveness before it's too late."
Is that a threat?
Please understand everyone who reads your comments and who isn't insane is laughing at you right now.
On our own we are little more than bits of stone and glass. Together we are the Body of Christ. Holy Bible: Mosaic is an invitation to experience Christ in His Word and in the responses of his people. Each week, as you reflect on guided Scripture readings aligned with the church seasons, you will receive a wealth of insight from historical and contemporary writings.
