Evolution, the Bible, and relative truth...
[quote="count2infinity";p="135002"]remember when they thought the world was flat? The KNEW that the world was flat...there was no reason to see it any other way! Remember when the Earth was not only the center of the planets and the sun, but the entire universe revolved around the Earth. Copernicus thought that we revolve around the sun, not the other way around. That worked out pretty well if i do say so myself. brings me back to the days when i was young and my mom would listen to Harry Chapin all the time... he had a song that went like this...
The little boy went first day of school
He got some crayons and started to draw
He put colors all over the paper
For colors was what he saw
And the teacher said.. What you doin' young man
I'm paintin' flowers he said
She said... It's not the time for art young man
And anyway flowers are green and red
There's a time for everything young man
And a way it should be done
You've got to show concern for everyone else
For you're not the only one
And she said...
Flowers are red young man
Green leaves are green
There's no need to see flowers any other way
Than they way they always have been seen
But the little boy said...
There are so many colors in the rainbow
So many colors in the morning sun
So many colors in the flower and I see every one
Well the teacher said.. You're sassy
There's ways that things should be
And you'll paint flowers the way they are
So repeat after me.....
And she said...
Flowers are red young man
Green leaves are green
There's no need to see flowers any other way
Than they way they always have been seen
But the little boy said...
There are so many colors in the rainbow
So many colors in the morning sun
So many colors in the flower and I see every one
The teacher put him in a corner
She said.. It's for your own good..
And you won't come out 'til you get it right
And are responding like you should
Well finally he got lonely
Frightened thoughts filled his head
And he went up to the teacher
And this is what he said.. and he said
Flowers are red, green leaves are green
There's no need to see flowers any other way
Than the way they always have been seen
Time went by like it always does
And they moved to another town
And the little boy went to another school
And this is what he found
The teacher there was smilin'
She said...Painting should be fun
And there are so many colors in a flower
So let's use every one
But that little boy painted flowers
In neat rows of green and red
And when the teacher asked him why
This is what he said.. and he said
Flowers are red, green leaves are green
There's no need to see flowers any other way
Than the way they always have been seen.[/quote]
That was the Gayest anecdote I have ever heard, The teacher was probably a christian who stifled the little boy. Christian Freaks!!!!

[quote="futbolfrk91";p="135010"]you are wrong count...
when they believed the earth was flat... they knew it was round.... eristhosthenes proved B.C. that the earth was round... and all the greeks and romans believed it, and all the people believed it as well... it's a myth that people believe the world was flat...
and the sun, the church knew they were wrong but they didn't like the alternative, so they kept with their stubborn beliefs... kinda like you...[/quote]
wait a minute here freaky... the church knew they were wrong but they didn't like the alternative. hmmm ... interesting. The church new the truth, but chose not to believe it... ya know that works both ways freaky... i don't know i'm wrong, in fact i believe that i'm right, and in the future if they prove without a reasonable doubt that evolution is true, will you believe that we revolve around the sun or will you be stubborn?
and D-nice, i was simply saying that it's ok to be different and to think different.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
