Even the DI has a blind spot in this area.Jimpithecushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10143519573877156940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19722540.post-72578912755036369382010-10-29T08:58:51.346-04:002010-10-29T08:58:51.346-04:00I agree Jim,

It is not so much a church/state issue as it is one of appropriateness. <br /><br />You wouldn't teach alchemy in our children's chemistry class, or astrology alongside astronomy. I certainly hope that you wouldn't let teachers accept "speaking in tongues" as fulfilling a foreign language requirement right along with Spanish, French, German and Latin, would you?<br /><br />If you want to teach creationism in public schools then do so in a sociology, religions of the world or mythology class where it belongs. Our children need to learn good science, not be confused with religious ideologies parading as scientific opinion.<br /><br />Why creationism isn't science:<br />http://mainereason.blogspot.com/2010/10/is-creation-science-science.html<br />http://mainereason.blogspot.com/2010/09/teaching-creationism-in-schools.html <br /><br />To teach creationism in science class is to do a disservice to our children and our future. Please don't let it happen.Karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06603794068803432957noreply@blogger.com
