Judaism & the Torah?
Hinduism, hundreds of Gods & reincarnation?
Islam, martyrs and 72 virgins?
Wiccanism & Goddess Mother Earth?
Buddhism & nirvana?
Shintoism & God-like Emperor?
Confucianism & social virtue?
Taoism & natural spirits?
Sikhism & the Shri Guru Granth?
Voodoo?




To the best of my knowledge, none of the followers of the above religions are pushing for their belief systems to be taught in public school as science.

Look, communities should get to teach the kids what they think the kids should learn. The interesting thing is this: they can't come back later complaining that they're kids can't get into college, etc. property values have dropped or that businesses won't move into the area. You pays your money and you takes your chances.

Bingo! What does that tell us?

They can. That's why God invented private schools.
