This School From Texas Teaches Their Students To Never Believe In Science And People On The Internet Are Outraged
Apparently, everything about science is a hoax for them.
For thousands of years after our first scientists discovered, well, science, you would think that current civilization has truly come a long way and has now established a healthy relationship with it. However, there are still certain groups of people who look down on science—even if they are already living in an age that involves technology, which goes hand in hand with science.
Even with the numerous pieces of evidence they can find at their fingertips, some people are so convinced that science is not real that they reinforce this belief in others as well. This is what happened to a girl who was studying in a school in Texas, where her dad found one of their projects that ridiculously undermines the existence of science and insists that their students should not believe anything that scientists say.
The controversial relationship between religion and science has always been up for debate, and for some of the more inquisitive minds, they might question whether both religion and science can actually coexist, given that they provide different versions of how our world came into existence. Most Catholic schools still teach their students science, however, because they do not see any doctrinal conflict between the two, and they respect the advances it has brought to our society.
This particular school, however, seems to be brainwashing its students into believing that everything in science is just a hoax designed to fool everyone into thinking that the world operates without divine power. Her dad took a photo of one of their projects and posted it on Reddit, and people are in gaping disbelief.

RedditBelieving that a powerful entity truly created our universe is one thing, but enforcing children to believe that science is not real at all with these kinds of texts sure sounds like a cult in the making.

"Scientists don't know everything"—a disaster in the making.

Seriously, these schools are too expensive for them to teach students nonsense like this.

Not a good investment AT ALL.

Get away before it consumes your daughter.

Telling them about religious beliefs is one thing, but undermining science and disproving all evidence that supports it is another story.

One question: why?

Well, here's the dad's answer:

To say that the world is filled with crazies is actually an understatement!

It's not just about the disadvantages of living in rural Texas.

She dodged a bullet with that one.

See? They can be taught at the same time without undermining one another.

The one OP posted seems like a cult.

What are we supposed to believe?

Speaking nothing but the truth.

Most Christian/Catholic schools separate religion and science into two subjects, incorporating discussions that could help students develop their critical thinking skills while living in a world where groups of people believe in one of them or both. Students should have the free will to choose what they believe in, and not simply because these brainwashing schools told them to do so.
