If people are going to demand that Creationism be taught, then are they prepared for the schools to spend equal time on creation theories espoused by Hindus and Buddhists? Or those of the various Native Americans? or African Animists? Or the ancient Greeks, Norse, or Egyptians?


Schitbird, NO ONE is seriously considering letting Dr. Gish or Ken Hamm write their HS biology books. All anyone is saying is the public schools should present the FACTS (stubborn things, they are) that Darwin's Theory has lots and lots of holes in it. That isn't done, anywhere, ever, at least not when the marxist teacher's unions get wind of it. The smart kids will figure the rest of it out on their own. There are ONLY two options regarding human origins.


Ouch. Schitbird. Wow. Pain. Good lord... On-his-knees slung an insult. That makes in incomprehensible argument much clearer.... give it a rest.

Perhaps you're aware that the teachers' unions don't select state curricula, or textbooks.

Can you please provide some authority for the claim that that "[t]here are ONLY two options regarding human origins?" I'm sure the millions of practitioners of other religions who subscribe to creationism might disagree with your pronouncement...


Murphy was an optimist.
