I cannot accept some of you premises:
"Truth: This is a word best avoided entirely in physics [and science]"
This is not only the reason that Evolutionists will lose, but also why the Democrat party CONTINUES to lose.
"Faith: the belief in something for which there is no material evidence or empirical proof; acceptance of ideals, beliefs, etc., which are not necessarily demonstrable through experimentation or observation."
Faith is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things not seen.
If you dismiss faith, then you have to dismiss actual occurences in human life that can ONLY BE EXPLAINED as a direct result of a person's faith. The entirety of Herbrews chapter 11, for example. The testimonies of fellow Freepers could provide another example.
As a bottom line, I really don't care if Crevo or ID are taught side by side. My two boys will walk into the classroom everyday knowing how the earth got here.
They've been taught that since birth........ :)
