Because evolution is the only scientificly proven "theory" about the existence ofthe universe.

I always thought we are told to be tolerant of other peoples beliefs and their world views. All are equal unless it involves God.

Correct.

I'm not saying we shouldn't be respectful of creation accounts, but we can be respectful without teaching them in science class.

scientificly proven "theory" Oxymoron Alert!

No such thing. If it's proven then it's not a theory. If it's a theory it's not yet proven.

Evolution is the only government approved religion.

Uh...if it's a theory, it is, by definition, not proven.

____It has not been proven, it is an unprovable hypothesis..intelligent design is not necessarily a religious concept and evidence can be brought forth to show that there is a rational order to the universe without bringing in religion

Scientifically proven theory??? That doesn't even make sense. Theories are "possibilities" not proven fact.

"Because evolution is the only [scientificly] proven "theory" about the existence ofthe universe."

Darwin is still a theory. It is not scientific fact. There are major gaps in the fossil record. Which record is the foundation of the theory. Therefore a fact is that gaps exist. Are there other explanations that contain gaps? Yes, Intelligent Design. So why does one find favor and the other is found faulty?

Again, Darwin's theory has major flaws. Do you know how many days are devoted to it in Dover science classes versus the proposed addition of the Intelligent Design curriculum? If you knew you would correct your uninformed statements.
