Ummm... so we have these two idiots who believe that the rapture is almost upon us, right? Why would anyone be upset that they STOPPED teaching their kids?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Apparently even in Texas it is the law.


Meanwhile...what is it about churches liking rapists?

Quote:Okla. church lets convicted rapist attend kid’s event because ‘God can change people’

Quote:Highway of Holiness Church Pastor John Steiger admitted that Hoeffert attended the event

"Highway of Holiness?" Why do I picture a cross between a truck stop and a biker bar?

Another hero for Jay-sus.

Quote:California pastor punches wife’s face so hard in church parking lot that he breaks her glasses

Quote:The Hydesville Community Church website indicated that Beltz was in charge of the Men’s Ministry, and had been with the church since 1996.

“The heart of his vision is to reach the Eel River Valley with the Love and the Message of Christ in this Generation,” the website said.

Yeah...that and an occasional punch in the face.

Pastor Beltz. What a perfect name, considering what he did!

Any two shitwits can have a kid.... and fuck them up for their whole lives.

Quote:Campbell County, VA -A battle is brewing in Campbell County over home schooling, religious beliefs, and one family's desire to make a change.

Jeff and Stephanie Dent are Universalists - who've been home schooling their kids for almost three years now. In the past, their children have taken the required standardized tests. Now, they want to opt out - for religious reasons.

Quote:Christian actor Kevin Sorbo: Why do atheists ‘get so angry at something you don’t believe in’


It's very simple, assipe. We are tired of sanctimonious cunts like you telling us how your fucking god wants everyone to live. Get it? Probably not. These people are beyond stupid.
