Remember that picture from a "science" textbook from Bob Jones University from the '90's? The picture of the girl in pink blowing her hair dry? It was in a post here a while back.
Here's a piece written by a man who read the textbook. It might be funny, if you find that deliberately misleading students with gross propaganda is amusing.
I find it disturbing that a university, a place where students supposedly attend with hopes of preparing for a future to be contributing members of our society, and to be qualified to hold jobs and raise families, would allow this to be taught as science. It seems a great disservice not only to the families who are paying a good amount of tuition for their children to attend, but also to society in general that has to deal with the ignorance that graduates from the school.
With regard to religious schools - post high school - do you think it's responsible for them to teach subjects in the manner exhibited in the above link?

It's way to early for that much stupid!
Just remember there is lots of evidence all around us not just about science but spiritually speaking as well. Such as God and The Angels!
I know I shouldn't take the bait, HMNM, but what "evidence" can you provide? Evidence, remember, is "the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid." I know you have faith, but your faith doesn't provide "evidence" to convince me to believe in your god or your angels.
