Many evolutionists are concerned with creation being brought into school, or being *snuck in through the back door in the guise of ID* as if this is something new that someone came up with. What people are objecting to is it being shoved out. It's not a matter of bringing in something heretofore never taught, it's bringing BACK something that was taught for centuries.

I find it interesting that there is a correlation between the rise of the Protestant Reformation and the Enlightenment, when so many of the discoveries that set the stage for modern science were made; and the beginning of the deterioration of the modern education system, which occurred at about the same time as the legal battles to get evolution taught in the schools. Now lest anyone accuse me of implying that evolution is the cause of the downfall of education, I did not say that. However, it can certainly lay to rest the fear that many have that teaching creation in the public schools will destroy their intellectual quality. If there is a correlation, then by that reasoning, reintroducing creation should result in their improvement. At the very least, it can be shown that it won't harm it.
