Yes, it's much better for our children to grow up thinking they're not accountable to a higher power. What a moral vacuum. If I do something and nobody finds out about it, I'm cool.

Of course that's been the mindset of many people over the past few decades, but it's grown from a whisper to a shout.

Nothing you said has anything to do with creationism. Creationism is garbage for ignorant and uneducated people and an insult to humanity's achievements. Evolution's truth has no bearing on whether or not there is a higher power.

I don't know why that's so hard for people to accept. Evolution is just a natural process and mechanism for the proliferation of life. It is what it is whether you are an atheist or someone who believes in a creator/designer.

Understanding evolution does not conflict with belief in God, just literalist belief in the :duck: of the book of Genesis.

Bill nye is an idiot. To put faith in a theory is laughable. Evolution is a half truth. Creationists only have issue with the origin of man, monkeys turning into human beings and species turning into completely different species. Bill nye is a prick. A line has to be drawn in the sand to protect us from the stupidity of atheists.

It is better, because we're not accountable to a higher power, we're accountable to society and each other. Children need to be taught compassion, not that an all-seeing judge in the sky is examining every second of his life and gets to decide their ultimate fate.

If Billy is considering stealing Mikey's bike, which of these alternatives is better, more 'moral'?
"I'm not going to steal it because god will punish me"

or

"I'm not going to steal it because it will cause Mikey suffering, and he doesn't deserve that"
