(710 posts)Again I subscribe to the fundamental ideas of being progressive, namely fairness for all and a system that doesn't dictate what one should believe, whether that be religious or athesist.
I respect your view that you think we evolved from nothing, I will never disparage you for those beliefs because it makes no difference to my life as long as you don't force those beliefs on me, and vice versa.
Like I said, I have nothing to gain by believing what I think is false, that we evolved from apes who came from nothing, etc.
You are entitled to believe that when you die you will turn to dust and nothing else.
At least if I am proven right I will have an after life, if I am proven wrong I will have lost nothing, will just be dust like you.
Please explain to me how not believing or teaching my kids about evolution that happened millions of years ago (which I think is false) will impact my life or my kids life?
We can live a life that respects others, that wishes fairness for all, that believes the things that we see with our own eyes and that we experience in our lives, that excepts the science that is proven in front of our vey own eyes.
Not believing in something that apparently happened millions of years ago will not make us less productive members of society.
