Avoiding certain subjects in science because someone might be upset? We are one step behind the Inquisition. This is ridiculous.
What would be wrong with teaching evolution, creationism AND intelligent design---and the pros and cons of each?
Also, coming from where I do, I find it hard to believe that teachers are that afraid to teach evolution. Where I come from, they sure don't hesitate to preach their liberal propaganda in social studies and the like.
