Sorry, I'm just not buying the argumetns that purging the theory of evoulution from the classroom is going to correct every evil in the world, and render all of our enemies powerless.

There seem to be plenty of Judeo-Christian churches and demonitations that can reconcile their faith with evolutionary theory.

And I'm not arguing that.

Can you teach evolution in schools without imposing an atheistic, dehumanizing worldview? (Do you want to...?)

There are merits to the science and theory of evolution.
And I use "theory" here in the same sense of "music theory", the "method of the study of" a topic.
I'm going to teach it to my homeschooled kids.

When it is used as an indoctrination tool - that's when you get resistance.
