The following article has come out of a conversation at the NG church Farrarmere. The original purpose of the discussion was to provide an opportunity for parents to offer together to discuss their children to school on the theory of evolution is taught and what (if anything) they have to do. The article below contains a summary of the discussion. Due to limited space, there are several themes mentioned in the article will not be discussed in detail will be. The content of this article shell museum sanibel is not intended to something or someone (science, scientists, church or education) to attack, but to Christians on the matter to help think. It is also a Christian opinion on the matter and I accept shell museum sanibel that there are various other opinions can be also regarded as a Christian can be.
Subjects information about biological science contains almost invariably include the theory of evolution in their curriculum. For many Christian parents and other stakeholders, it is a real problem. Many of these people are not exactly shell museum sanibel sure why they feel negative about evolution, but it is still almost as reflex reaction against. Before the school curriculum and the theory shell museum sanibel of evolution itself is referred to a few key ideas to the table to sit
Although the opposition to the idea of evolution fairly widespread among the general population, it is not the case in the scientific community. By far the majority of scientists accept the theory of evolution as correct. Although this is a controversial thing to say, it would in my opinion be irresponsible science education shell museum sanibel to children who studied biology at the theory of evolution not expose. The questions that must be answered is rather: "How should the theory of evolution in schools to be treated?" And "What is the role of a Christian parent to his / her child guidance on the matter?" Because the teaching of evolution State schools in a given are Christian shell museum sanibel parents shell museum sanibel faced with the decision of their children from public schools shell museum sanibel to pick up their rather in a more controlled environment where they teach. There is not in this place to write much about this option say. I think, however, that withdrawal for many parents is not a viable option. So we will focus on parents whose children were in public schools. What are they doing?
It is sad to say, Christians have a reputation that they often develop anti-science. Although the reputation is not entirely based on truth is not put out there some truth to it. Many scientists (often unbeliever) is under the impression that the scientific method is the main (or only) way is that there be certain knowledge can be established. The scientific work with the "facts". In contrast, shell museum sanibel they think religion is a kind of wishful thinking without any facts and therefore shell museum sanibel work daydream. The two fields according to this idea runs to such an extent from each other that there is no way of interaction between the two can be. There is the idea that believers usually science and scientists often attack when the science would say something that Christians as a possible threat experience. Although I scientific ideas in this piece will be questioned, it is by no means meant to be anti-science or against a particular science to be. The science and the scientific method includes wonderful work and knowledge shell museum sanibel in ways that have much truth and benefit to mankind area.
The thing about the age of the earth often synonymous shell museum sanibel with the evolution debate has become. The stereotypical idea that most unbelieving scientists shell museum sanibel hold that any person who has anything shell museum sanibel negative shell museum sanibel to say about evolution, the Bible in a very specific way to understand and ignore all other information. This is not true. I will not write this in the "age of the earth" debate to get involved. The gespek of evolution is not necessarily commit to it. My discussion will be the most widely accepted scientific ideas and move in that context comment. It is an attempt from a Christian perspective specific questions about the theory of evolution and the teaching shell museum sanibel of asking.
