You think our ciminal justice system should be taught in science class?

A better question: Do you think the philosphy of evolution can hold up under scrutiny from the standpoint of forensic crime and still retain the name "science?" If science could sue it would sue to have its good name restored from the usurpation it has endured at the hands of those who cloak conjecture in the garb of objective truth.

Who in their right mind would hold the philosophy of evolution on the same level as forensic crime studies and criminal justice as if the proposition of a billion-year-old earth could hold up by virtue of eyewitness testimony?

Actually, many of the skills used in forensic science were first developed by archeologists and anthropologists. Professions that I feel save in claiming have a 100% acceptance of evolution (yes, yes, I know they have arguments over the details, but not the fact that evolution occurs).

Oh, that is a good question.
