So, you would probably support "evo fundies" going into churches, "teaching the controversy," and making people's lives miserable? You should be glad scientists have more consideration and courtesy than that.

In a church service? No, I would not, but they are welcome to be present and speak up in a class room environment, or a Sunday School class. Sure they are welcome, but I would doubt they would come.

Now back to this course: I would like to take this course and challenge every falsehood that this professor mentions. I would definitely stand up for the creationist's point of view. Professors like this get away with everything because few people want to challenge them and affect their grades, or maybe peer pressure causes them to just be quiet. That would be the least of my concerns. I would ask the professor back up every point that goes against creation, like he would really know, ha! Of course, I would be courteous, but firm in my requests. I am not for loud-mouth actions. I really enjoy hearing 'so-called smart intelligent' people like this prove what little they really know, so that is what would make this an exciting class for me.

Um, rawhide, the course wasn't a biology course. YOu'd have wasted your hard-earned money.

Esp since if I taught the course, I'd treat the christian creation myth on equal footing with the 100 or so other top creation myths, and you would sit there and stew (and, oh, perhaps maybe even learn a little something like how your creation myth contains bits and peices of many other creation myths that predate yours by millenia. As if by maaagic.)

But no, you would have only enrolled to be a disruptor. So I'd just fail your ass. Until you withdrew in the nick of time, of course.
