My issue with this is, it's disingenuous. I don't have a big problem with the viewpoint itself, actually, and find it kind of whimsical...but presumably these people do have scientists, right? So this is all bullshit; they know why these processes occur, so this is all fluff. That's my issue. Believe in God, believe in Allah, whatever. But be honest. You can believe in God and think the natural world is amazing...but you're just lying if you write a fucking physics textbook and focus on this shit.

And, as you say, the hypocrisy is astounding. Reddit thinks this is great. But America can't fucking even have the Ten Commandments (largely areligious actually) in schools, or apply any sort of values at all, because apparently that would violate the First Amendment the leftists totally care about so deeply. Fuck these people. Their hypocrisy complete lack of principles is their worst quality.

Slightly off topic, but as someone who is not even a Christian (yet...I probably will be at some point with all the actual fucking demons on the opposing side), the removal of the Ten Commandments was a fucking travesty. Thou Shalt Have Standards and Values...oh my, so fucking controversial, remove it and teach kids to have gay anal sex posthaste! Fuck you. Woodchipper. Now.

The Christians had the right idea all along, didn't we?

Hopefully one day you realize we were right about other things.

About what? That's awfully vague.

And, for the record, I'm merely not personally a Christian, I'm certainly not anti-Christian either.

This seems like the way you get Rurohallah Khameinei the Purple Robed to approve your science book. They won't read past a few pages.

Perhaps, and I saw someone else proposing that type of angle as well. Still painfully retarded though. Heck, perhaps it's worse in that light.

I don't see what is wrong with this. It looks like the bog standard "why we study physics" crap that's in the introduction of any grade school level textbook.

I don't think you'd see reference to God in any western country's text books.

Sure you would, though not necessarily one printed in the last 20 years.

Plus if it's anything like India their tongues aren't mutually intelligible. So if you gather people from far provinces to study, English is the most convenient.

It comes, and it goes. At some point, people probably thought French would be the uh Lingua Franca. Maybe tomorrow it will be Chinese.

Malaysia, same way.

You should hear their English dubs of anime, especially the Dragon Ball movies.

To say nothing of Transformers Headmasters.

This seems like a straight forward application of religious apologetics to accommodate our current world and educate religious people in the sciences. If, in the early 2000s, the fundamentalists in the US had adopted a similar stance instead of trying writing odes about the brilliant design of the banana we could have saved a lot of heartache and division.

writing odes about the brilliant design of the banana

I now wonder if that shit was yet another psyop. Probably. It's not hard in the slightest to reconcile God and evolution. But they went full retard about bananas and peanut butter and who even remembers what else. "Oh, my, there's no life evolving in this peanut butter that we've intentionally preserved to prevent other things from growing in, God is great!" Fuckers.

It's real and the problem is on both sides. An earlier example would be the cancellation of the super conducting supercollider in 1993. Not one scientist was able to evoke enough awe to convince the (largely religious conservative) senate committee to continue funding and the project was cancelled.

Regardless the utility of colliders, the result was that all the money that had been spent so far went to waste leaving miles of empty tunnels under Texas and all the scientists in the field ended up going to CERN instead of the US. All because no one in a room full of scientists was able to bring themselves to say something like "this machine will bring us closer to understanding creation than ever before".

It's like that parable of the blind men touching an elephant except they all went home and formed their own separate armed factions.

It has both typographical and grammatical errors.

Calling shenanigans on this one, even though Wackistan is a hive of religious nutbaggery and would have probably made such a textbook.

Looking at the chapter subsections, its for something between 6th and 9th. Not quite highschool level.

Remember when that town in Michigan elected a majority Muslim city council and that council banned fag flags being flown at city offices? We got statements like this:

“There’s a sense of betrayal,” said the former Hamtramck mayor Karen Majewski, who is Polish American. “We supported you when you were threatened, and now our rights are threatened, and you’re the one doing the threatening.”

How long until that council bans women from holding office? That's the fight I want to see.

Karen Majewski

Is...is that real?* That may be the most memed up name I've ever fuckin seen. I'm literally crying a little. Holy shit.

* It's real.

EDIT: Came back half an hour later...still cracked up upon seeing the name. Dude...I just fucking can't.

Real life really does have the most ironic sense of humour, even more-so than the most absurd fiction.

Assuming she is true to her name. Why on earth would a Majewski lend their political support to a Muslim?

I mean, at that point just buy Hamas a Starbucks pumpkin spice late.

I mean, she's Polish, not necessarily Jewish. Haven't looked it up, maybe someone can find out, but I was mostly laughing at the name.

But, to answer your question, just like any other group, Jews aren't a monolith. There are plenty of even explicitly ashiest and anti-Zionist Jews. Although Jews do have an extreme in-group preference, often their extreme leftism/progressivism can overcome that. Not really that mysterious.

Why on earth would a Majewski lend their political support to a Muslim?

Because we fucking live in either a simulation or Clown World. Honk honk.

Rooting for muslims.. since muslims are from the old world. The old war christianity used to belong to. Christianity is too weak and subverted from within. Seems muslims kept their shit relatively clean aside from saudi princes.

Very hard to follow the logic of wokies. Why praise a group of people that are symmetrically opposed to them in every way? clearly the only consistent thread among all their bullshit is they wish for self-destruction
