Well, it's comforting to me to know God is in charge. I don't think He needs defending in schools or anywhere else.

He doesn't. But conservatives do.

Your post assumes that you can do anything whatever with no consequences because "God doesn't need defending". My issue is that there is a right way and a wrong way for Christians to work with outsiders, and getting in their face over evolution isn't it. It isn't Christ-like, in my humble opionion.

(granted, I'm getting in lots of face around here. But I feel that I'm among friends and that we can work out between us how to deal with others)

If you want to teach about Gods creation, you first have to win over the hearts of those that you will teach. THEN, you may teach them His word. Because THEN they will be open to hear what you have to say.

In the mean time, if you want to teach your kids that you don't believe what they're saying in science class. Well, I can't stop you. But it just isn't productive to force religious teaching in public school.
