An interesting story of censorship.

Banning science in the land of the free? What the fuck?

[smallblackflower]

That is very, very silly. Would they ban a film that mentioned Creationism in case it offended people who believe in Evolution?

It is rather worrying...

Ah, this is nothing new. They were on about banning teachings of evolutionary theories and Darwin in some US schools before for the same kind of reasons. Despite the fact evolution can pretty much be proved in modern society (how else would you explain MRSA :rolleyes: ). Shows how dominating religion can become even in a modern society such as the USA.

Sad, isn't it?

A couple of years ago, I came up with a unifying theory of big bang, creation, and evolution, science and spirituality. I wrote it down somewhere, I'm sure. I should dig it out and send it to them, just to see if it'll make their puny little brains explode and leak out of their ears.

Or I could just shoot them. Fuck it, if they believe in God so strongly that they feel compelled to deny science, logic and a basic knowledge of the Bible dictates that they ought to have enough faith to die for their beliefs, as Jesus asked of those persecuted by the Romans. Aye?

Exactly. If i should be taught to die for my beliefs, should i not be allowed to make my own beliefs from what i am presented with?
