Evilution

You want to know what I think is evil?

Evil is when you prevent children from learning theories and ideas just because they threaten you beliefs.

Evil is when you deny them access to textbooks, or part of textbooks, just because they contain words that you don’t agree with.

We all want to know the truth.

In other news…

I’ve finally finished The Corporate Machine animation, based on the strip of the same name (not willing to look through the archives? You can find it here).

It’s currently up on Youtube, feel free to swing by and rate it if you like it. Just visit:

    And that’s why you’re going to hell.

    Wouldn’t it make more sense for the brown pile of shit to go through Generic Image Molding to become a brown heart, rather than the other way around? i.e., the unwitting public is getting shit, but they think it’s still heart, since the image is presented as such.

    I think that was quite cool. Creatively eerie!

    Mostly parents want their children the best….So parents are not an evil.

    I agree, parents are not evil (actually, I doubt anyone is… stupid, yes, evil, no), and that on the whole they want what is best for their child… I just disagree that witholding information from them is the way to do this.

    Think about it. I’m a humanist, I don’t believe in God. Do you think then that I should raise my children without teaching them about what a large proportion of this planet believes in? Not only to ommit god, but also religion, its history and its art?

    That would be wrong. It would also be the same as removing the theory of evolution (even as a theory) out of schools and textbooks.

    Clearly your parents are evil for they kept you from learning grammar.
    Oh the ironing!
    Tho I’m not sure what belief system this would help uphold!

    As far as i remember, and i could be wrong, but the text books we had in school were fact based, not theory based, therefore i dont believe they should teach the Theory of Evolution as basically thats what it is, A Theory. But I must agree with you on the issue of withholding information. They want to remove the holocaust from school history books now in the UK cause they say it offends the muslims. I say let the schoolkids learn all the FACTS and then decide for themselves.

      Except evolution is a fact as well. There is a theory of evolution, and the fact of evolution. The fact is what we know happens, the theory is the explanation of it. Not teaching evolution because it’s a ‘theory’ would be like not teaching gravity, or general relativity, or really any science classes at all. Evolution has such a mountain of evidence behind it that considering it “just a theory” requires a mountain of ignorance.
