- Reuters reports:
- The spiritual leader of the world’s Anglicans does not believe that creationism — the Bible-based account of the world’s origins — should be taught in schools.
- Williams, head of a church which has no problem with the Darwinian theory of evolution, told the Guardian newspaper: “I think creationism is, in a sense, a kind of category mistake, as if the Bible were a theory, like other theories.”
Uhhhh, sir?
Do you mean only theories should be taught in school?
Here I thought facts, history, and reality were to be taught in schools.
There! I exposed my own quaintness!
- Oh, for the record, here are two more paragraphs from the story:
- Williams’ stance echoes the position of the Roman Catholic Church, the world’s largest single Christian denomination, which has weighed into the debate by praising a U.S. court decision that rejected the intelligent design theory as non-scientific.
- Catholicism, which has never rejected evolution, teaches that God created the world and the natural laws by which life developed.
So where does your denomination/religion stand?
Where do you stand?
My stand: In the beginning GOD… plain and simple…
