GIP!

I don't make too many of my own icons. Mainly because I'm never pleased.

This one is special though *g*

raelala has delighted these past few days in sending me all kinds of pictures of the Creation Museum in Kentucky and asking questions like "If dinosaurs were on THE ARK then why did they go extinct?"

She does this knowing that Creationism is the one topic that will have me foaming at the mouth within moments and leaves me cursing at my computer whilst making strangling motions.

Anyways, we found out from this lovely little site (gag) that I'm what's considered a "Compromised Christian" as I believe such silly little things like the earth is 4.5 billion years old and that dinosaurs went extinct some 65 million years ago. You know, such LUDICROUS ideas. For real LULZ (or in my case RAGE) read this article: Dinosaurs and the Bible. It's truly mind boggling.

So yes, I'm going to be proud of my "Compromised Christian" status if this is the kind of bullshit being promoted.

That's what really gets me ... Believing the insanity is one thing, but passing it along to children??

I actually knew a family once that pulled their kids out of public school and homeschooled them because *gasp!* they were being taught evolution. Well, that, and one of the kids got in trouble for referring to a gay person as a fag. which the mother thought was perfectly acceptable. I don't even know.

I went to a Private Christian School that taught no evolution and taught this brand of Creationism. I can distinctly remember the first time someone ever brought up the idea that maybe it took more then 6 days to make the world and how horrified I was that people didn't take Genesis literally. I've changed my tune a bit since then *g*

It's one of the reasons I'm so against teaching this to kids. I was taught it and it really is not a valid theory and it tends to stifle scientific curiosity...

Since when is name calling EVER acceptable? Some people should just not breed...
