There are only 2 worldviews possible in teaching about the origins of the universe and man:
1) The godless, atheistic, dehumanized, godless worldview.
2) A God-centered worldview.
BOTH have profound religious, cultural, and political consequences that are **NOT** neutral.
There is NO possible way for any government school to teach about the origins of life and man's appearance on the earth and do it in a way that is religiously neutral!!! It is impossible!
As I have posted many times before ( and that you clearly understand):
Government schools are a First Amendment and freedom of conscience abomination! ( I should make this my tag line.)
There are only two kinds of people in the world. People who believe there are only two kinds of people in the world, and people who don't.
There are only 2 possible ways to think about this issue. The idea that there are only 2 possible alternatives, or refusing to let yourself get painted into that corner.
