My faith as a child was ruined. I was being told two different things by people I felt were telling the truth. I guess I should be more specific. Micro-evolution or adaptation is valuable science and rightfully taught in school. Macro-evolution is hogwash. The only way for the evolution theory to work is by macro-evolution - that a kind can change into different kinds, starting with randomly chanced goo.

Faith is many things, including believing when others say your wrong. The Bible has yet to be proven wrong so I would dispute that any "evidence" tells you something else.

You can't take bits and pieces out of the Bible and plug them in where most convenient. My opinion is that I would love to see the Bible taught in school, but that is not what society wants. Intelligent design is an important scientific theory and has more evidence than macro-evolution. Only makes sense these theories should be offered together.

If "macro-evolution" is wrong, untrue, and has absolutely no evidence to back it up, it should not be taught in the schools at all, no?

Do you think that not teaching it in the schools would be putting American students at an intellectual disadvantage compared to other students in the world, or would American students be better off?

"The Bible has yet to be proven wrong..."

Really? So there is actually no problem with slavery?
