Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

It took me longer than I'd like to admit to realize it was total bullshit and start to really understand evolution. it also stunted my development of critical thinking skills. I love science and the natural world so much, I still don't know if I can forgive my folks for doing that.

Shoutout to AromRa on YouTube for his creationism/evolution videos.

Oh yeah, me too. If you’re an American (and you probably are, as YEC seems to be a predominantly American thing) I cannot recommend highly enough that you go to Chicago sometime and check out their Natural History Museum; specifically their exhibit on the history of earth. I spent hours in it - the point my gf at the time was like “alright you stay here I’m gonna go walk around Michigan Ave till you’re done”. You start billions of years ago and literally walk through the history of how life on earth evolved. I was completely mesmerized.
