"There is simply no basis for the claim that it will hurt the science education the kids are receiving. On the contrary, evolution has had a monopoly in the school system for decades and has done the science education no good. We continue to fall behind in the world."
There is the claim. Are you claiming that you believe that teaching evolution is the cause of us falling behind, or that teaching creationism instead can't possible make it any worse? If we are comparing our science education to the rest of the world, there are places in the world where creationism is taught as science we can use for comparison.
I am not interested in discussing vague claims about what anonymous “evos” have or have not said.
Not to mention your own?
But you make a good point, evos never want to claim their own ridiculous assertions, silly strawmen arguments and projections.
Go back to post 32 in this thread.
Read cm’s screeds about theocracies, the dark ages, and being burned at the stake should creation be reintroduced into schools.
If you don’t like the anonymous part, tell them to give their names so they’re not anonymous any more.
Show us how science education has improved in the United States under the monopoly evolution has had in the public school system. That should be easy to do as creation was only relatively recently been completely kicked out.
If teaching creation is so deleterious to learning science, you should be able to point out the improvements in science education and our ranking in the world should be increasing.
