Science has been pretty much defined in such a way so that only physical aspects of the natural world qualify as science. No supernatural stuff. No transcendant stuff.

In addition, so far as I know, religion classes have pretty much disappeared from public schools, so that sort of forum, for supernatural or transcendant stuff, has been eliminated.

In this way, the material beliefs of the Evolutionists win by default.

I'd like government schools eliminated so that parents have a diversity of choices and can send their children to schools which have curriculums with which they agree. My second choice would be to bring back religion classes in schools so that the importance of transcendant values can be communicated to children. My third choice would be to change science classes so that the controversy (and yes: there is a controversy) can be openly discussed.

As it should be.

That's kind of why they call them the natural sciences. How would transcendant, supernatural topics be covered in science class?

As to the bringing back of religion class, I wholeheartedly agree. It was part of my education, and I do believe that western civilization cannot be adequately understood without knowledge of our religous heritage.

The above comment made by a non-repentant "evolutionist", which around here is pretty much synonymous with commie pinko fag atheist hippie monkey boy supporter of public breastfeeding with a side order of total anarchy.
