I study on a Catholic University. There's two classes that the freshmen have to take. Christian Anthropology and Christian Morals. Those aren't made to shove religion on your throat, they are made to share different opinions and points of view between the different carrers. Oh, and by the way, our teacher quoted fucking Carl Sagan on the first class.

What the ... ? The whole family looks methed out.
[QUOTE=TehMentos;44324813]This doesn't change the fact that their religion basically says it didn't happen. I am fully aware that being a catholic doesn't mean that you're dumb enough to deny evolution, but if you did believe every single word in the bible, that would probably be the case, no matter if you're a protestant or catholic. The church (and pope) still represents a religion that fundamentally says things that contradicts evolution, dinosaurs etc. I think it's wonderful that the catholic church is sort of keeping up-to-date a bit.[/QUOTE] You can believe every single word in bible and take it as an allegory which it is. There's a lot of ways to interpret it. [editline]23rd March 2014[/editline] (Some of which are even more batshit and malicious than taking it literally).
[QUOTE=TehMentos;44324685]So for once it's the pope receiving the D from the kids, and not the other way around. Am I the only one seeing the irony in this though? The Pope got a dinosaur - a creature he doesn't actually believe existed ever.[/QUOTE] The Bible actually mentions dinosaurs, though it refers to them as "The Behemoths," seeing as the term dinosaur did not exist at the time. Not only that but the Catholic Church does not establish Young Earth Creationism as official doctrine and has a science department that studies astrology and shit. [editline]23rd March 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Crazy Ivan;44324750]It's American Protestants who are the [I]utter fuckwits.[/I][/QUOTE] Not all of us. Mostly just the Southern Baptists, the Westboro Baptists, Christian Scientists, and some other crazy vocal denominations. I'm a Moderate Baptist, though.
[QUOTE=Crazy Ivan;44324750]Just like, a note. Catholics are not Young-Earth Creationists. The Vatican department of Scientists studies astrology, anthropology and all of that stuff in the same league as most major universities. Most of my family, whom went to Catholic schools as children, believe in Evolution and Dinosaurs. Elements they were taught of as children, by nuns. It's American Protestants who are the [I]utter fuckwits.[/I][/QUOTE] Just like, a note. The Vatican department of scientists studying astrology isn't exactly something that's gonna convince me they're not idiots. Maybe if you would have told me they study astronomy it would be a little different...

[QUOTE=Gwoodman;44324607]Wish I had dinosaur toys as a kid[/QUOTE] I feel for you. I had dinosaur bed sheets, a blanket cover and pillowcases when I was a kid.

[QUOTE=Crazy Ivan;44324750] It's American Protestants who are the [I]utter fuckwits.[/I][/QUOTE] We Methodists aren't that bad, actually. My family, being mostly Methodist, all believe in evolution, and are the first ones to say that YEC doesn't belong in the classroom.

Seriously, though... You always have to humor kids. It's fun. A week ago, I was drawing at a live competition and art auction. A kid came up to me and said, "Can you draw my robot? He's this tall, etc. So I drew it, and he LOVED it. Man, it's fun playing with kids that are younger than you.
[QUOTE=Satane;44328758]He probably meant astronomy[/QUOTE] I get the two confused a lot.

And [I]"Catholics" [/I]are another thing Yes it's true, we were taught -as I went to a catholic school- evolution as children. But some hardcore teachers -who were 0% related to biology- still didn't believe in evolution citing the old "Lol there's no monkey-> man bone/skeleton".

They have no idea how the world around them works and are amazed at whatever shit you pull to amuse them. I don't generally give much of a damn for kids, but when one of them comes up to you and just loves everything you do, I can't help but smile. It's so strange to see someone who is so pure, hear laughter so genuine, and look into eyes so full of wonder. It's a shame the world jades people.
