Why does Obama oppose critical thinking in science about so called vesitgal organs?

Students are told that there are all sorts of vestigal organs with no purpose that prove evolution. The list in fact drops and is arguably zero as we learn more. Obama opposes using creationary alternatives in schools no matter how reasonable. Does this not slam the door on critical thinking in these areas?Why does Obama oppose critical thinking in science about so called vesitgal organs?In order for one to oppose critical thinking by way of opposing creationism, one would have to argue that believing in creationism is an example of critical thinking. Teaching creationism as a science implies that creationism is testable and falsifiable, both of which are untrue for creationism. Creationism, rather, is a belief which cannot be disproven, by definition.



Thinking critically means that one is always open to exploring the implications and possible fallacies of an argument. But creationism is a dead-end argument, from which one cannot draw any further implications (other than the definition of creationism itself) or explore possible fallacies. To teach students that creationism explains the world around us is to encourage intellectual complacency. Hence, to believe in creationism is to not think critically.Why does Obama oppose critical thinking in science about so called vesitgal organs?
Almost nobody thinks creationism is reasonable.



You can believe God invented the world while still learning what science has to say about it.Why does Obama oppose critical thinking in science about so called vesitgal organs?These conclusions were reached as a result of critical thinking. I real think people should learn what that is (critical thinking).
Make your kid go to private school -- I don't want my kid learning your liesWhy does Obama oppose critical thinking in science about so called vesitgal organs?Religion is for church, choose yours and go. It is not for schools.Why does Obama oppose critical thinking in science about so called vesitgal organs?
Creationism is the opposite of critical thinking.
no--"creationism" isnt reasonable, or scientific at all---and thats why im against it being taught in science class----periodWhy does Obama oppose critical thinking in science about so called vesitgal organs?
Religion has no place in schools. Just like facts have no place in Churches.



-Superintendent Chalmers
Tell me, do you think we should learn about the four humors in science class, or how about the world being made up of four elements? This is about where creationism ranks in terms of science, it is such an old outdated idea, that it isn't even relevant in anything other than a study of the history of science. Almost no biologist believes in creationism because it a useless theory.



As for vestigial organs, they are still vestigial even though they have been adapted to new purposes. The appendix is still a former second stomach even though it still has a minor use to aid our immune system. Our tail bone I'm not even sure what its current function is if it has one, but it is clearly a predecessor to when we actually had tails.



Seriously, is that your best argument against evolution?
There are other things besides vestigial (yeah, that's how you spell it) organs that point at evolution like dinosaur bones, other archaeological discoveries and carbon 14 dating. And no one's ever found a use for your appendix.



One of these days people will realize that the Old Testament is nothing more than a collection of sacred writings by a bunch of old Jews 2000 years or so ago. Much of the Bible is allegory. There was no Garden of Eden as described in Genesis. There was a cradle of civilization. Surely, you have asked yourself how Cain left his mom and pop and went off and married a woman. The Jewish people used these folktales to record their history. They weren't always accurate.



I'll bet Obama knows this, but don't let me put words in his mouth. He was sworn into office on the Holy Bible.
