The Anti-theist Thread

Nine years ago I home schooled my daughter. The only other home school moms were doing it because they were christians, and they wanted to teach their children C/values. They have all their own text books about creationism and all that. I was dumbfounded. They totally rejected lots of science. something about carbon 14 dating being a bunch of hooey. They believed in dinosaurs ( how can you argue with the fossils!) but not neanderthrals and such. I was speechless and sputtering, I didn't want to call these lovely' caring women stupid. I just gave up. But, what to tell your own children. Sigh, again.
