Guess what! Acceptance of the theory of evolution doesn't mean rejection of God! Really!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I did not say that it was.

I am saying that teaching about the origins of man and of the universe can NOT be done in a religiously neutral manner. It is impossible!

The government school has only 2 options: godless or God-centered!

Teaching about the origins of man and the universe from a godless point of view is **NOT** religiously neutral in content or consequences.

Teaching about the origins of man from a God-centered worldview is **NOT** religiously neutral either!!!

No matter what the government school does it will establish the religious worldview of one group and trash that of the other!

For this reason, ( and a thousand other issues, as well) we must begin the process of privatizing universal K-12 education. Get government out of the education business.

How about teaching in Science only what there is SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE for? There is Scientific evidence for Biological Evolution. MOUNTAINS of evidence. You and I may well believe that this is because Evolution is the means that God utilized in order for the diversity and abundance of life to emerge, but there is no evidence for it. No evidence = not Science.

But you are a one hit wonder and will beat the same drum ad nauseum.
