And just so you know, I don't care how many socalled holes you think are in evolution. Faith based beliefs, such as creationism should NOT be taught in schools.

Facts only, if you want your child to believe in creationism, teach it to them at home, but your christian, Jewish, muslim, Buddha, hindu, etc ad nauseum faith based beliefs do NOT belong in the classroom.

If you want your child to have a faith based education, then send them to private school.

They are not teaching creationism. They are only pointing out that evolution theory is a THEORY. How dare they be accurate.

Like Global warming advocates, some of you evolutionist extremists want to squelch all debate so that your view is the only alternative presented, without disclaimer or questioning, in the hopes that many will thus mistake the theory for fact. Then any dissenters can be labelled as religious extremists, since no one related to the school is allowed(in your solution) to discuss alternatives or simply mention that there are other theories.

If they were attempting to actually ban the teachings of evolution, I'd be with you(since I believe in most of evolutionary theory.) But for evolutionists to demand the banning of any disclaimers is no different than the Church banning dissent in Copernicus' time. Quite ironic, but not the least bit surprising.

Amazing how so many Secularists, Evolutionists, Homesexual Activists, and Environmentalists elevate their cause to the level of a religion, as intolerent of questioning as Wahhabism.

So then are you also demanding that the pagan religious underpinnings of the scientific advancements of many cultures also not be explained? A lot of Babylonian, Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Islamic, Mayan, and other cultures had scientific advancements interwoven with their faith-based(religious) beliefs, from calendars to architectural design. You'll have to burn a lot of textbooks to meet the standard you just stated.

God's existence should -- must actually -- be considered axiomatic for this country to make sense. Taken literally, your position is that the Declaration of Independence should not even be taught.

Atheism is a religion and it does not belong in schools. There is not a single thing in any legitimate science that requires or is even helped by the teaching of evolution. Evolution is an ideology, science is about looking for the truth. The two are incompatible.

Well evolution is a faith-based belief too. Nobody was around then to measure red-shifts, luminosities, rotational and translational velocities, radiation backgrounds, density fluctuations and whatnot. Interesting stuff, to be sure, but it belongs to the theoreticians. As any decent experimentalist knows, extrapolation can be tricky.
