Americans Among the Most Ignorant

• Evolutionary Theory

When it comes to genetics Americans are almost but not quite the most ignorant people in the world. Thanks to the fundagelicals.

“American Protestantism is more fundamentalist than anybody except perhaps the Islamic fundamentalist, which is why Turkey and we are so close,” said study co-author Jon Miller of Michigan State University.

…

American conservative politicians feel no shame in catering to the ignorance of those that will vote for them.

Politics is also contributing to America’s widespread confusion about evolution, the researchers say. …

Miller says that it makes about as much sense for politicians to oppose evolution in their campaigns as it is for them to advocate that the Earth is flat and promise to pass legislation saying so if elected to office.

…

Quit pretending that intelligent design is real science.

But scientists do not share doubts over evolution. They argue it is one of the most well tested theories around, supported by countless tests done in many different scientific fields. Scott says promoting uncertainty about evolution is just as bad as denying it outright and that ID and traditional creationism both spread the same message.

“Both are saying that evolution is bad science, that evolution is weak and inadequate science, and that it can’t do the job so therefore God did it,” she said.

There is a point that comes where man realizes that you cannot out smart God who to me is all source of energy. You cannot measure God you cannot weigh God and you cannot put God in a box that right there is a fact.as for the (rule of science I amagine you must be able to do all these things in order to give proof for all to see...as for God all source of energy...will actually choose who he desires to reveal the miraculus to . You ask why ? I give you a answer (because thats why). So lets see you have creation which is product (product of creation is also alive to what ever there point of being alive is. You have human bodys which is creation and as we can all know that there is a energy in each in every one of us..its kind of like the power behind the creation. As for energys above human energy this you can also call the creation but one thing that is different in that creation meaning the spiritual creation is you cannot weigh it ..you cannot measure it ..and you cannot put it in a box and shut it as for creation that is human body you can measure it weigh it or lock it up so there fore ..you see the natural which would be my body vessal and the supernatural which is the energy inside my vessel. Now as determining who is the bad spirit and who is the good spirit(energy)...there is a thing called (truth) energy which perhaps others would call divine energy or right energy or pure etc...there comes a time where our energy inside us can tap away from truth energy by thought or feeling therefore what happens is my energy becomes contrary to the (truth ) energy and then I get zapped by negative energy that I have encountared by thought or feeling.So even with out having any action taken place the action was already taken place by my feeling or thought which then became contrary to the (truth energy)thats why you hear be careful where and how you use your energy because onece you tap your energy out of the truth energy ..well then its now in your own hands ..as for me I like to remain in the truth energy so I can be as safe a s I can while trapped here in this vessel. The reason why we have free will is to come to learn the difference between the two choices..if we did not have free will given to us how would we ever come to learn anything????

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Americans Among the Most Ignorant. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
