Not only would the "Doonesbury" strip in the comics section be better suited for the Review & Opinion section, the July 10 strip steers our children toward the faith-based religion of evolution and ridicules the biblical creation account, which has never been, nor could it be, disproved.



The strip says, "All the evidence massively supports the theory of evolution." This is wrong on many accounts. Primarily, evolution goes against what is observable, testable and repeatable.



For instance, the First Law of Thermodynamics states that in a closed system "Energy can be neither created nor destroyed." Yet evolutionists have no logical answers to how energy and matter came to be.



Likewise, the Second Law of Thermodynamics, "Disorder in a system increases," is opposite of what evolutionists hold when they say dead matter became living on its own, and simple organisms evolved into more complex organisms. They think that just because living things are similar they must have come from one another.



Evolutionists have been trying in vain for decades to make life from dead matter, yet they think those who accept an intelligent designer are ignorant. Worse, they want to teach our children their far-fetched theory as fact. Is it beneficial for our children to believe they are here by happenstance and therefore there is no real purpose to their lives?
