Why teach children to have an allergic reaction to natural processes?
What does science teach about matter and energy? That one transforms into another, neither being created nor destroyed. The atoms that form our bodies, so far as we can tell, have existed in some form for billions of years. Our basic material components never "die." They simply return to the building blocks of creation, giving life to new forms. To play on Carl Sagan's famous line, we live because a star has died.
It is the religious lens that myopically fails to find hope, grace, and beauty in a material existence.
The reality of death should spur us to live life in fullness. No need to lie about the nature of existence, not when we as conscious beings can uniquely apprehend the beauteous interactions of matter and energy, and take part!

The same person wrote this about our moron president, Fucktard Trump:
"We don’t need China and, frankly, would be far better off without them.” - this is an admission of defeat. These are the words of a petulant scamp quitting the game and taking his marbles home with him.
Didn't this same person write, "trade wars are easy to win?"
At some point, many, many people may say that this man is bad for American farmers and bad for American business. American stock and bond markets already appear to say so.

"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
