Re: Bisede me ateistet!
Kam une disa statistika, Kondrapedali. /pf/images/graemlins/tongue.gif Po i ve sic i mora nga origjinali:
In Europe, evolution has achieved near-universality. In other areas, such as the Middle East, creationism is nearly universal. Finally, in places such as the United States, opinions are widely mixed, and the debate rages in educational, political, and some scientific circles.
.
In the United States, creationism remains popular among the general population, and opinion is split in the academic community. Among the scientific community, opinion is split: According to a 1997 Gallup poll, 55% of scientists ascribe to atheistic evolution, leaving almost half who either ascribe to some form of creationism or state no opinion. Belief in biblically literal creation, however, is confined to a tiny minority of the academic community. As of population beliefs, according to a 2001 Gallup evolution poll, 72% of Americans believe in some form of creationism (as defined above). About 45% of Americans ascribe to the more Biblically literal creationism, believing that “God created man pretty much in his present form at one time within the last 10,000 years.”
.
In 1987, Newsweek reported: “By one count there are some 700 scientists with respectable academic credentials (out of a total of 480,000 U.S. earth and life scientists) who ascribed to Biblically literal creationism. No figures were collected as to how many scientists believe in other forms of creationism.
These data have remained relatively stable over time.
.
While a solid majority of the American population believes in some form of creation, statistics show that most Americans support the teaching of evolution in schools. A 2000 poll by People for the American Way examined the question of popular support for evolution and creationism in schools, and showed that a majority of 83% supported the teaching of the theory of evolution.
Vlen te permendet qe po flasim per levizjen e kreacionizmit, nje levizje e re qe ka gjetur mbeshtetje neper qarqet fetare por qe nuk pretendon aspak qe te kete lidhje te drejtperdrejte me fene. Si levizje ata thjesht sjellin argumente vetem mbi pamundesine e lindjes se strukturave jetesore nga elemente "te pajete", shembull i thjeshte lindjen spontane te RNA ose DNA nga aminoacidet. Ideojne ekzistencen e nje projektimi inteligjent (intelligent design) per jeten, qofte ky me natyre hyjnore ose thjesht injektim nga jashte, si psh jete rudimentare nga kometat ose asteroidet, nderhyrje e nje tjeter njesie inteligjente jashtetokesore, etj.
Qarqet teologjike qe kane perqafuar se fundi idete kreacioniste ndahen ne tre grupe: Kreacioniste te Tokes se Re, me interpretim literal te Dhiates se vjeter. Me pas vijne Kreacionistet e Dite-Epokes, qe trumbetojne se 6+1 ditet duhen interpretuar si epoka dhe jo dite literale. Ketu ka dhe nje nengrup qe nje pasazh te Gjeneza 1:2 lidhur me renditjen e krijimit te luleve, bimeve, cfaredo ta kene emrin, e interpretojne si nje nderprerje te jetes dhe riberje te krijimit nga e para. Keta jane Kreacionistet e Nderprerjes.
Te dy grupet e fundit identifikohen dhe si Kreacioniste te Tokes se Vjeter.
Grupi i fundit jane ata qe quhen Teiste Evolucionike. Ata propagandojne pikerisht idene qe zanafillat e jetes primordiale ne Toke jane veper e njesise hyjnore dhe me pas ndjekin hap pas hapi cdo perparim te evolucionit klasik ne kete fushe. Eshte interesant fakti qe ne kete menyre shmanget dhe rreziku i sjelljes ne Toke i jetes si dhe qenrimi "politikisht ne rregull" me idene qe njeriu eshte me te meta sepse eshte lejuar dhe projektuar qe te evoloje pikerisht si i tille.
Ne cilin grup, familje, gjenera, klase, e shohin veten teistet e forumit tone? /pf/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

"I'm in awe, Lennier. The way you can take a straightforward, logical proposition and turn it inside-out so that in the end it says .. what you want it to say instead of what it actually means. Does this come naturally or did you .. attend some special martial arts class for the philosophically inclined?" -- Marcus, Babylon 5
