The ToE is the creation account of the atheist.

And a whole lot of people who aren't.

By that reasoning, then we shouldn't be having the ToE being taught either. Why favor one over all the rest?

Because one is science and the others are theology. Both are taught in universities, each in their proper place.

Right now, the only reason that it's being taught in schools is because of the abuse of the judiciary. It's being forced on an unwilling public through litigation by those who think that they are the intellectual elite.

Keep telling yourself that.

Just what would be the reaction of the evos if the creation account of the Bible was the only creation account allowed to be taught in schools because of the same underhanded techniques? (You really don't need to bother answering that.)

But I will. I don't agree that requiring the teaching of science in science classes is underhanded.

I’m not saying that all people who believe in evolution are atheists, people are free to believe any creation account that they choose, but all atheists have no alternative as to how we got here other than the TOE. Hence, the TOE is the creation account of the atheist. If it’s not, please provide us with whatever account it is that atheists have that otherwise explains how the universe came into being and how life arose.

The ToE is being taught in the schools, not by the choice of most of the populace. There are myriads of lawsuits brought against schools and school boards every time the parents in a community dare to speak their mind and state that they wish to have creation taught in schools as well as evolution. Forcing one’s unsubstantiated belief in evolution to the exclusion of all others, on others, through litigation is the abuse of the judiciary.
