Odd, becuase I've been looking at your posts since 2001, and I can't find a single one where you did this. In fact, I can't find anything prior to this discussion where you speak on the theory of evolution at all.
Sigh.
There are other forums out there other than Free Republic. I suppose you'd like me to link you to the Craig's List postings I've posted over the years, various "BBSes" I've posted on since 1983, and even go far back as finding the tapes and drives that the "General Electric Network for Information Exchange" (GEnie) backed up my conservations to. (circa 1986-1991).
Obviously you're the type who will throw tons of questions at me, I'll answer all but one, and you'll accuse me of dodging you.
Re: Native American ideas to creationism. I'm not familiar with those theories. I believe I said information on all theories should be given, with more time given to the more prevalent ones. I don't see the harm in giving students more information. If I was setting up a curriculum, I'd give them a month on the origins of the universe... 2 weeks on the alleged big bang theory, 1 week on creationism/ID, and a week on every thing else I could find. Oh, and I could do the whole week on creationism/ID without once referring to God/Supreme Being/Higher power. I just don't see the harm in that.
Obviously it spooks you, and I find that very tragic.

Apart from wasting a great deal of time by teaching non-science just to be "fair" to people who want their religious stories represented and drawing the ire of a number of religious fundamentalists who don't want their children exposed to religious beliefs other than their own.
