What kind of educator are you? let me guess, not in science.

Most people of religion seek to have their doctrine taught in schools but would exclude any other religion. I have long thought that Christianity should be examined in schools along with Islam, Judaism, Hinduism Buddhism, Greek Mythology, and Atheist ism. They should be examined for origin, intellectual thought, purpose and agenda. They should not be taught as science but could be taught as folklore.

No, I did not ask this question. If you check replies to your earlier posts you will find that this was a reply from a poster with whom you were having a heated debate. I simply pasted his comment to you and gave my opinion of his comments to you. The comment that I copied was a attempt to slander or belittle your position as an educator because the poster lacked the skills to engage in serious debate. I used his post and related to you that his position was that of folklore. I will double check but that is my position.

No. I think high school science class is the proper place for scientific challenges to evolution. And don't pretend there aren't any. There are.
Most scientists disagree with you.

I also think that 18th and 19th century philosophy should be taught in High Schools, so that students understand that Darwin's 'science' was based on the prevailing philosophy of the academic community of the time, and not on scientific inquiry.

Spoken like someone who hasn't stepped inside a high-school since he left. They can't complete a respectable math curriculum, and you want to teach them Hegelianism?

But then, I'm an educator who actually believes in education. Not brainwashing.

Actually, this is your post to ohioWfan that I commented on.
