discuss origins. creation vs. evolution

[Forlorn]

Oh not this again. I just had a debate about this because of a TOK presentation at my school. From my religious background and such I believe in that the concept of evolution is and was rubbish. It does not have that much proof to back up the theory other than the really old fossil fuel... I mean fossils.

im a creationist and evolution is rubbish
imagen my surprise when i learned snapple believed in evo. i found a bottle cap that said "chickens are the closest relitives to t-rexes"

[Forlorn]

Well I could see how they got that for T-rexes supposedly had small feet and their tail bone alignment are quite the same as those of a chicken but that doesn't mean that T-rexes evolved into a chicken. I also don't think that evolution should be taught in science class for there is not enough proof to support the theory. Nor is there any efficient way to check one's hypotheses of the matter. If it were included into academic classes it should be in Theory of Knowledge class or humanities.

Actully there is more proof that evolution is true than creation, as for somebody who believes in creations they believe in Bible, and thats there proof. I'm sorry but thats not much. There lots and lots of proof that evolution is true. Scienceist have found a heck of a lot.
Also I don't believe they shouldn't teach that in schools because thats just saying its rubbish and everyone is a christan, its not really that fair. We have R.E in our school, and then we have a science class. Let us choose which one we want, it the school didn't teach evolution I would complain.
