Education needs more parental decision. And junk science is proven to be a fairy tale. Just look at the old ‘Ice Age’ theory. Is it now safe to say that at least that theory was debunked?
I used to be a die-hard evolutionist until I read one of Ann Coulter’s books. If I recall it was, “How to Talk to a Liberal if You Must”. A real eye opener about evolutionism.
On the other side of the coin, the six of Genisis were not solar days. If one reads Page One carefully, one finds that the days of Genisis were beyond mortal comprehension at the time the Book was written. There was no sun on the first day. There was no manmade time piece of any kind either.
Conclusion: why not give the parents more say of what their kids are taught?
Who's stopping parents teaching their kids? Besides go back and read Genesis again. Plants were created before the sun. A whole lot of plants must have died during that time.
Because that leads to a slippery slope! Parents can want anything at all taught! That there is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is his prophet? Some parents want that. That bacterial infection is gods punishment visited upon us, and we must pray to rid ourself of it? There is no end, once unproven ideas are turned into, forgive the word, gospel in our educational system.
