    I spent first 8 years in a Christian school, took me to adulthood to learn that evolution theory is not just a “unproven hypothesis”

      it’s funny how much the scientifically illiterate rag on something because it’s ‘merely’ a theory. they decline to acknowledge it’s the ONLY working theory that explains the fossil record, genetics, heredity etc., and has been proven to accurately predict things over and over again.

      I challenge these folks to show me something that works better than evolution to explain all those things, and then it’s a matter of faith or the only reason evolution makes sense is because of the woke agenda educational industrial complex.

      fucking chuds.

      I’ve seen it go both ways. My best friend and her best friend went to a Catholic school, and they hinted that they did learn about evolution but with no added knowledge external to the few Bible verses that were usable to support evolution because they remotely seemed to point to it (and even then it wasn’t referred to as evolution, just the mutation lineage or something).

        That’s strange, because the Catholic Church officially endorses evolution.
