Mr. Paul A. Hanle in his Washington Post (Sunday 10/1/06) article “Waging War on Evolution” concludes it by writing, “We must teach science, not religion, in the science classroom.” I agree, theology (the study of God) is the first basic science students need to master. All science is derived from the fact of God’s existence. The number one reason for studying science is to understand God and His creation better.
"Wisdom begins with the fear of God." In Hanle’s article he mentioned that one of his French student’s questioned how biotechnology could be taught in the United States without a belief in evolution, which the French student implied was lacking here. That observation is understandable coming from the French. In the French Revolution Divine Revelation was rejected in favor of human reasoning. As a result God was forgotten, and the country of France became secular humanistic. Evolution is basic in the religion of secular humanism. The forefathers of the United States, on the other hand, believed in Divine Revelation and relied on Divine help form the Creator (the Lord Jesus Christ) to gain independence from Great Britain and to succeed as a sovereign nation. Today compare which of the two nations to see which is the greater.
Mr. Hanle states, “Evolution is the cornerstone principle of biology”. This is a bold face, flat out lie. He further asserts, “There is no serious scientific debate”. Of course not, evolution is neither science, nor is it provable, nor is it reproducible, and has no truth from which to reason. So then, how can you debate? It is wishful thinking of those who desire an evil lifestyle with no conscience, to tell them that they are doing wrong and are accountable to the Creator.
Mr. Hanle further writes, “The evolution of the human eye from a series of random mutations, for example, is indeed difficult to understand”. He is saying that what you can’t understand in evolution you accept as true anyway with no proof of evidence to the truth. The eye is a system that must be fully in place with all of the parts working correctly in order for the eye to function. Just as if you find a nut threaded on to a bolt you know instinctively that it didn’t get there by chance. Mutations are normally harmful to the plant or animal in which it takes place. To think that a multitude of mutations would produce an eye is an insult to one’s intelligence. If you have a cable TV just try refusing to pay your bill because the picture on the TV is only there by chance and not intelligent design. The fact that America exists is based on the knowledge that creation by the Creator is sufficient.
Where does Mr. Hanle arrive at this declaration, “This war (on evolution) could decimate the development of U.S. scientific talent”? Is he saying that if talented scientific students don’t believe in evolution that they will be denied jobs, promotions, and tenure? Yes, this is exactly what he is saying, “Lagging near the bottom in math skills and performing worse in science and it will only worsen if students come to regard evolution as questionable or controversial.” Since when do math skills have anything to do with evolution? You do not have to know anything about evolution to do chemistry or biology or any other science. Is Mr. Hanl saying that the tests have questions on evolution and what you think about it? If you don’t agree with evolution then you do poorly on the test? So something unscientific (evolution) has been inserted into the tests to disqualify the truly scientific from doing well on the exams. So the exams are really a fraud and the people using them are really fraudulent.
Yes, this is the case. Mr. Henle says so. “Thirty-seven percent of the high school advanced placement biology examination tests knowledge of evolution, evolutionary biology, and heredity, according to the College Board. Students who o not thoroughly understand evolution cannot hope to succeed on this exam; they will be handicapped in competitive science courses in college and the careers that may follow”. What Mr. Hanle has said is a threat to the nation in two ways.
First, for something to be logical it must be based on truth. Evolution is a lie, therefore, science based on evolution will be illogical, incorrect and the results will be flawed. Secondly, the freedom and liberty we enjoy here in the United States of America come directly from the Lord Jesus Christ who is the Creator. As the signors of the Declaration of Independence wrote, “We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.” “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness” do not come from evolution. However, the opposite, the lack of rights, tyranny and misery do come as a result of belief in and acceptance of evolution.
Belief in evolution sets America up for error in judgment.
