Tell you what...you win. You can have ID/creationism/whatever taught in public school science classes.

Just as soon as you agree to allow the teaching of evolution in churches and parochial schools. Equal time, presenting "both sides," and all that, you know.

Schools are 'public' institutions and should show all possibilities, while churches are 'private' institutions and have the right to focus on their own doctrines. Big difference. Or do you not believe infreedom of religion?

The latest spark for this discussion came about because of a statement by our President. I would like someone from the outraged science side of this whole deal to show me where science class was mentioned anywhere in his statement. How does anyone know he didn't mean for the schools to add a course that could include something like ID?

Guess what? - we already do teach evolution - warts and all. The difference is, we examine ALL of the evidence, not just the supportive evidence. And you now what - it fails miserably, because when it is taught objectively, not as indoctrination, but examining all sides of the issue - the evidence does NOT point to random mutations occuring over millions of years, unguided by anything but chance.
