People who quote-mine are deliberately trying to mislead people about what scientists are saying. If you endorse this process then I think you need to ask yourself why you also want to engage in the dishonest process of misrepresenting people's views. Is your desire to promote creationism so all-consuming that you feel you need to put together these lies in order to do it? And is that your brand of Christianity? Does "Thou shalt not bear false witness" have a qualifier attached -- "unless you're trying to get people to become creationists"?


First of all Linda, one impression you continue to give. Is that you have the patent on science, life, truth and I have to ask, do you have a degree in science? If so, do you have solid evidence to support yours/their claims? Rather than quoting them because it's the quotes that please you and getting yourself into a knot when you find quotes that make you uncomfortable. You are a very judgemental person, that is a big NO NO for any teacher! I am sad for your pupils if yu behave towards them in this manner. If they don't happen to agree with you, or give their own interpretation and opinion, heaven help them who are under your dubious pedigogical "care".

Also, bearing false witness? The quotes given came from these scientists, how one takes them is their business. Are you annoyed because they've been gathered up and posted up?

You have also described Kent Hovind as an "idiot", who has taught science for 15 years, he has a doctorate in education, until he got SICK of transmitting evolution lies! which he has now been exposing in 700 lectures, debates, per anum for the last 15 years, over a million video tapes have been distributed by public demand of which my father (who has a master of arts degree in English) is distributing over 500 copies of his classic presentation "Lies in the Textbooks".

You of all people, will certainly not be stopping the truth from getting out. And these truths are setting huge numbers of people free from the DUMB DOWN tyranny of evolution.

Like it or lump it, it's happening and using emotional responses like "bearing false witness" in yet more ways to hopefully get people on the back foot doesn't appear to be working. Certainly the God of creation who made this commandment in the first place is hardly going to be wounded by people giving HIS side to the argument!
