The most important question regarding the teaching of evolutionary theory is, who has the last word regarding schooling, the gov't or parents?

Good point. I say parents. And as a parent, I want my child to learn the science of evolution. So don't try to fill his head with your religious nonsense and superstitious mumbo-jumbo.

Superstitious mumbo-jumbo is believing an eco system that would have mammals breathing in oxygen and giving off carbon dixoide, while the plant life pulls in carbon dixoide and gives off oxygen just happening by chance.

That's not the science of evolution, but the science of chance. People have a right to differing opinions without ill mannered louts, whose mothers forgot to teach them manners, demeaning and disparaging what they have to say.

I want my child to learn the truth that God fashioned the universe with his own hand, and I for darned sure don't want people like you trying to fill his head with your atheistic, evolutionary nonsense and pseudoscientific mumbo-jumbo. And furthermore, I don't want my tax dollars spent to teach such things that I disagree with.

It would appear, that we have a problem.

You mention evolution as a 'science'. Evolutionists have claimed that one species can become another species resulting in offspring of that new species. Let's take a look at the scientific method:

1. Observe some aspect of the universe.
2. Invent a tentative description, called a hypothesis, that is consistent with what you have observed.
3. Use the hypothesis to make predictions.
4. Test those predictions by experiments or further observations and modify the hypothesis in the light of your results.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until there are no discrepancies between theory and experiment and/or observation.

So here are the questions:

1) Have evolutionists predicted a new species coming from an existing species?
2) Have these predictions been tested and observed?

Have these questions been answered? These questions better be answered if you are going to parade evolution around as a fact and defend it as fact.

Your response:

"Good point. I say parents. And as a parent, I want my child to learn the science of evolution. So don't try to fill his head with your religious nonsense and superstitious mumbo-jumbo."

Suppose a majority of school district patrons want, not a course taught, simply an ID statement read, whenever evolution is taught?
