Bill O'Reilly punks Richard Dawkins

[Zen Badger]

I never argued that. I believe that since science fails to answer many questions about evolution, and about how we came into existence, discussions in the classroom should be open to include creationism as well. Instead of one side or the other dictating what we're allowed to think, present the arguments from both sides and let people decide for themselves.

Yes you did. The biblical creation myth is just that, a myth, with no evidence whatsoever to support it.

And if this myth is to be introduced into science classes then all of the other creation myths should be as well since they have equal validity i.e none.

This is what you fail to understand, Creationism is not an alternative to evolution. None of the evidence points to it.

In fact all of the evidence from all fields of scientific endevour(paleontology, astronomy, geology,genetics,etc,etc) flatly and completely contradicts creationism. There is NOT a shred of evidence in support. So how could it be offered as an alternative to Evolution?

Yes, because we're here.

I can say the same to justify the existence of God.

But there is evidence for Evolution, there is none for god.

Your response to "blood_pardon":
And the mass murderers and serial killers that say that god told them to do it, what do you think of their personal relationship with your god?

Just exactly, what did you rebutt?

I wasn't supplying a rebuttal to B-p

I was merely asking him what he thought of a serial killers claim of a personal relationship with god when he tells them to kill people.

And there is precedent in the bible for this sort of relationship I might add.
