"Teach the Controversy!" Facepalm*

[ScienceAf]

Okay, okay. We have all heard some stupid creationist in invading our lives say "Teach the Controversy!" or some similar shit.

Well... No. Why the fuck teach the fuss. "Omg, have you heard that some people believe in a god that will burn them alive for an eternity if they don't believe, even though he never proves to us why he exists... LETS TEACH OUR CHILDREN!"

Facepalm*

Back the fuck of creationists, no one likes you if you keep smothering people in that shit (sorry for the language).

If you believe the controversy... Well may your god cure your schizophrenia.

You could just teach them science...

And for those who say that there is no controversy.... good, So I can look at what any scientist says, and go from there, and assume that all other scientist agree with them.

That's the problem, some creationists seem to think that it should be taught in science class!!!

They already teach me about Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Judaism etc. in history class.
History can be a science itself.

And there is no controversy against science itself because...

Creationism is not a theory, and not even hypothesis.
Science is full of theories and hypothesis, the theory of relativity (which is in question), the theory of gravity, etc.

You may be asking...

What's the difference?

Well dear, an hypothesis is a testable idea that may or may not be plausible.
God/Creationism is not testable, and creationism has been disapproved with the Theory of Evolution.
There are other theories but for now Evolution is the most plausible and the other theories would still be more testable than creationism.


And a theory is a hypothesis that has been tested, controlled, repeated through multiple labs/experiments.

Like Evolution.

Are apples real, or is God real? Teach the controversy!

I personally think age doesn't matter but yeah, I guess twelve year old's don't do much critical thinking.

Thank you!

Dude, you gotta learn how apostrophes work. Except for that, you come across as a smart cookie.

We should teach the controversy.

"So we discovered the Theory of evolution, and this is how and why people who are wrong about it have been railing against science pointlessly for the last 150 years" Controversy taught.

The "Teach the controversy" movement was just one more dishonest attempt on the part of the religious right to get creationism into schools by pretending that intelligent design was being unfairly treated by a biased scientific community and that it was a real scientific theory and not just more of the same creationist crap. They pretended that they only wanted to be able to present their argument and not being allowed that was unfair. The reality was that they had been presenting their argument for years to the scientific community and it didn't pass muster there. Their intention was to get it accepted as a science so that they could teach it in schools. When that failed they moved on to trying to get it into schools through another avenue, the pretense that it was being unfairly treated in the scientific community. The reality is that they just wanted to get it to the target that was intended all along, impressionable young minds less capable of critical thought than your average scientist. Even creationists know that if you're going to introduce magical thinking you have to do it to an impressionable young mind. No intelligent adult is going to accept that magic is real just because some moldy old book says it is.

There is no science against evolution there is only misunderstanding and misinformation and ignorance like basically everything on that site

As for consensus

1. science is about methodology not authorities

2.100% consensus is not need the fact that the overwhelming majority of scientist in all relevant fields agree is all that's needed. Because a few holdouts choose to deny it is of nor relevance the issue of weather it's settled science.There are historians who deny the holocaust this doesn't change the fact the evidence shows it happened.
