Whose creationism? The Vedic story? The Mormon version? HP Lovecraft's?

Once you open the door, you will not be able to close it if, for example, a Muslim teacher brings his religious doctrine into your child's school.

So instead the atheists, hypocritically, demand that THEIR creation account be allowed and nobody else's because they've managed to hookwink a lot of unsuspecting people into thinking that it's somehow *neutral* in it's position because it allegedly doesn't favor one religion over another.

But it's not neutral. It cannot be because it takes a position on the existence of God as opposed to which God.

It's no less religious than any religion which purports a god. Humanism is based on philosophical constructs just like any other religion.

So, if no other religion is permitted time in school for their creation account, neither should the humanist atheists be allowed to push their creation account on other's children at tax payer expense.

No metmom, the theory of evolution does not take a position on the existence of God.

Do you think the theory of nuclear fusion takes a position on the existence of God because it describes a physical means whereby God can create a star? Does the creation of stars through nuclear fusion mean that God did not create that star?

Not just atheist and humanists accept the theory of evolution; we have, for example, Pope Benedict XVI.
