Just curious... archaeology and anthropology, along with cosmology and geology, are the big guns against creationism. I'm surprised there's not more traffic on this group...
I’m not really interested in these subjects because of creationism - it’s so obviously fake and silly I never really needed much science to debunk creationism.
I just live archeology for its own sake, for whatvit tells us about ourselves.
It's not for you, it's for the kid who winds up in some xian cult!
Sure, I’m not saying it’s not viral and useful, I’m just saying that’s not personally relevant to me, or why I’m here specifically. I don’t like to talk to fundys so I dint get into those debates IRL. .
My child & I do read a bit on what the religious believe and she enjoys applying her knowledge of science, history, and archeology to debunking their hilarious claims. She gets a kick out of explaining that there are recipes for beer on cuneiform tablets that are older than some religious believe is the age of the universe. She did some math problems trying to craft a scenario for how panda bears could have gotten from China to Noah’s ark, how big of a cart they would have needed to carry all the bamboo they would need to eat to walk that far, etc.
I’m not intending to dismiss the utility or fun of debunking Creationist nonsense. Sorry if I gave that impression.
