A group of Christian schools in California are equipping students with iPads that contain “proven evidence” to help them maintain their faith against the scourge of “secular roommates” when they go to college. Their explanation of why that’s necessary speaks volumes.





With the help of a $1.5 million grant from two south Orange County families who wish to remain anonymous, Capistrano Valley Christian Schools are creating a web-based program that teaches Christianity using evidence they say can prove the truth of the Bible to better equip students to defend their faith – a discipline known as Christian apologetics. “Our goal is to revolutionize the way the Bible is taught in Christian schools so kids will be firm in their faith,” said Kim Van Vlear, director of Bible curriculum development at the schools. “We want to show why the Bible is true with proven evidence like science, archeology and history.”

“Proven evidence like science, archaeology and history? What a weird sentence that is.

Older students who study evolution will examine the debate between the Neo-Darwinists, who say the universe is a result of a blind, unguided process, versus the intelligent design thesis, which states the design and purpose of the universe demands a designer, said program editor Catherine Waller. “The curriculum will give students the opportunity to learn, understand and compare and contrast the claims of Neo-Darwinism and the claims of the intelligent design thesis,” Waller said. “We invite students to follow the evidence where it leads.”

No you don’t. You invite students to use their confirmation bias to only accept the “evidence” you give to them and dismiss all the actual science.

Studies show that Christian teens are disengaging from their faith as they grow older and that tough questions about faith play a central role, school leaders said. “There are so many kids going to college and having their faith rocked by a secular roommate,” Van Vlear said.

Or by having to take actual science classes instead of the slanted nonsense you teach them in your Christian schools?
