Subject: RE: BS: Semantics: 'Accept' versus 'Believe'
pete... it really is NOT the case that "evolutionists just want kids to accept their dogma without question-probably afraid they might see all the holes in the theory."

It is rather that they do not want evolution to be rejected without seeing the data and proofs. Most folk who accept evolution expect their kids to read and study as much science as necessary. That totally removes it from being called "dogma".

Dogma is what happens when someone is told.."We don't care what your science says, we have our beliefs based on religious writings.

Please...whatever you wish to believe... don't confuse the systems
