about time.. http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2009/nov/08/evolution-primary-school-curriculum-education.
.
the schools minister, diana johnson, has confirmed the plans will be included in a blueprint for a new curriculum to be published in the next few weeks.. it follows a letter signed by scientists and science educators calling on the government to make the change after draft versions of the new curriculum failed to mention evolution explicitly.. if only i had been taught evolution at primary school it might have helped me to realise exactly how much rubbish my parents were spouting.. i would love to know how 'faith' schools are going to get round this?.
If they didn't teach the different theories of evolution at my son's school- I would teach him myself! I find both the 'big bang theory' and the 'steady state universe theorys' to be facinating and neither conflict with my own personal spritual beliefs- they strengthen them...
Children need to learn and study ALL the possibilities so that they can one day make up their own mind on these things...
they are announced as no longer being one of jehovahs witnesses.
why then do people still shun them if they are not disfellowshipped.
witnesses talk to non jws all the time, so we should be allowed to talk to members who are announced as no longer one of jehovahs witnesses.
I remember they made the announcemnet about changing how they would in future announce a person to be DF ( Feburary/March this year...?).
"So an so is no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses"- so it would not be formally made public whether the person DA'd or was DF'd-( like there is a difference in how you are taught there how to treat So&so........)
The lady I was studing with was very quick to tell me that is very rarely that a person is DF'd and not be too concerned about it, "it is for their own good, truley".... (What a load of CRAP!)
i am not a christain, but i do read the bible and believe myself to be a reasonabily moral person.
i have homosexual friends and relatives and would like to see just one bible passage where jesus himself says "men should not lay with men".... perhaps i may have missed it- or perhaps you practice paulianity instead of christianity?????

I have PM'd a MOD- I ask AGAIN that no one post anything further on this thread- to allow time for the MODS to LOCK it.
Thank You.
- if you mix all the parts of a meat mixer together in a tumble dryer for all eternity, you wont get a meat mixer.
'ahhh' says everyone, then creation must be true... if you mix all the parts of a human body together in a tumble dryer for all eternity you wont get a human?
thats insane.
I was told that DFing was like putting a bad student out of the classroom so that the good students could learn without distraction....... yeah.. I heard that one a week before I quit!

Im not going to comment or provoke anymore now I see whats actually going on here. its not really fair to engage this topic any further.
I agree.... I will ask that no one posts any further comments on this thread- to allow time for a MOD to see it and LOCK it please... I thought I was debating a rational person... this is clearly not the case here....

He was probably hoping that the post police (you) were out to lunch!
Is it possible that a person be gay and a JW? YES!!!! does this faith allow it? NO but if I may point out the hypocricy of your statement...
YOU are a poor example of your faith, and you have the hide to call your self a faithful and discreet slave.......

Are you suffering from short term memory loss? I watched you pounce on a new members thread earlier 'condemning him' before he even had a change to state what he believed, with your homophobic ranting so you only respond to biblical questions?????? could have fooled me!
You can not 'unlearn' truth... but you can walk away from lies......

I raised this debate, as you debate with non christians constantly using your bible, so I figured this would would have been a fair discussion... I did state quite clearly in the very first post on this thread, that I am NOT a Christian...
