A growing number of science students on British campuses and in sixth form colleges are challenging the theory of evolution and arguing that Darwin was wrong. Some are being failed in university exams because they quote sayings from the Bible or Qur'an as scientific fact and at one sixth form college in London most biology students are now thought to be creationists.
Earlier this month Muslim medical students in London distributed leaflets that dismissed Darwin's theories as false. Evangelical Christian students are also increasingly vocal in challenging the notion of evolution.
Is this an attack against a belief that is different than the traditional theory by Darwin?
Forgive me if I seem rude, but you seem extremely sure Darwinism is the correct method and even seem to be ready to ridicule and make fun of anybody who believes otherwise.
Discrediting and expelling A level students for different beliefs is just outrageous.
True, they have no evidence, but you have any evidence against them?
True, they quote the bible and believe in only a theory,
We should, instead, be sitting with these students and see if we cannot find common ground and try to make connections
Who knows, maybe for once, this cooperation would bring some truth and help shed light on this great mystery we're all wrapped up in.
instead, we play these power games and ridicule these people and make it HARD for them to get along.
They only had sons right ?
The days of Adam after he fathered Seth were 800 years; and he had other sons and daughters.
.. even if they had plenty of daughters, the bible says sleeping with your sister is uncool. right ?

No. Genesis 5.4:
The days of Adam after he fathered Seth were 800 years; and he had other sons and daughters.

Only after some time, when the Law was given. It wasn't forbidden from the beginning so far as we can tell.
A "theory" of 7 day creation,
with light on day 1 before the sun is created on day 4 is ridiculous.
so god changed his mind?...why would a perfect being do that?
if everything needs a creator then so does the creator
if a god can spring out of nothing...or can exist forever without the need for a creator..then so can the universe..
the creator is beyond time..

Not if the creator is beyond time.
Six days.
The Bible says that God himself gives off light.
The Bible says that God himself gives off light. So, if the creation account is true, it makes perfect sense that light could exist before the sun did.
.does science not teach that the universe did indeed have a beginning?
