“I think he is saying that people should respect each others views and not push them on others.”

I had a girlfriend who tried to convince her 3rd year Astronomy professor to respect her views about Astrology. What do you think? Did she have a point?

I just listened because she was hot and wanted to sleep with me.

She had a poor point, it simply wouldnt stand any scientific scrutiny. But hey, maybe she would have been first to prove it. you can give respect to a person if they are respectful as well, but also say there is no scientific evidence to support it in a science class without being insulting, condescending or uncivil.

I myself hold zero supernatural or religious beliefs, I really don't care if somebody chooses something else. Just as long as it is a choice. Science class should be about science. Philosophy or theology classes, church or whatever people choose, all those places are for specific things as well. put them in the appropriate class is all I ask. IF someone gets bent because they teach about evolution in a science class. Well? I don't have much pity on them. If someone gets bent because they teach about Islam, Buddhism or Christianity in a theology class. Too bad. I have seen people here fight like cats and dogs over evolution and creation. It is generally merely an excercise in debate at best as either the heart or the mind were won long ago. As long as she was not arguing for democrats. If you overlook and sleep with something like that, I've no mercy on you. ;)
