I get it. So even though God created the universe like he says in Genesis, we can't teach this, because it might make a few libs mad?
Because it might make a few Christians like me mad because my interpretation of Genesis has plenty of room for evolution.
God gave us a Bible, and He gave us His creation. By definition, they cannot be in conflict. If an apparent conflict exists, then someone interpreted something wrong.
If you want to understand about salvation, then the Bible is your book. If you want to understand how Gods creation works, then study it. Which is what science has done, and has found enourmous evidence for evolution.
That is what should be taught in schools.
Welcome to FR.
Don't let these people get to you. You'll only wind up mired in a flame war. It won't be the first or the last time this has happened, however.
The idea that you shouldn't speak your mind because it make someone else uncomfortable is as like you put it...ridiculous. If everyone on the right sat around and wrung their hands like that, there would be no FR.
