Every day, non-natural explanations are pooh-poohed IN SCIENCE CLASSROOMS. It’s a rigged game. One side is getting all the calls. That’s why the ID stratagem of “teach the controversy” is ultimately going to win out in school districts and the courts. It’s simple fairness AND objectively accurate AND in keeping with the true scientific enterprise of being objective about reality. I do think it should stop there. Creationism should NOT be taught in science class. But do teach kids how to think…that’s why science class without some critical thinking skills attached is not really education. It’s “what the teacher says is true.” That’s a bit scary.
i think that creationism should be taught in class rooms. Some people are taught all their life in Evolutionism (as i like to call it) and say he or she hears of creationism... who's to say he or she won't ask questions. The more one promotes something on a day to day basis the more acceptable it becomes regardless of how right or wrong it is. So promote all good things!
