Then what’s the problem with the creation and ID points of view being represented?

Why just one?

Why does it have to be an either/or scenario.

I’ll give creationists this over evos any day, as a whole, creationists are fine with creation AND ID AND evolution being taught in public schools, as opposed to the evos who as a whole adamantly reject that option. As a matter of fact, I don’t recall reading any creationist on this forum who insists that evolution not be taught in public schools. And yet the overwhelming majority of evos insist on it being kept out under the guise of either it not being *science* or because it’s *religious*.

I agree with GGG. You appear to be nonchalant about evolution only being taught in the schools because it’s the position you hold, as comes across so clearly from the vast majority of the evos.

That's interesting, I've seen many calls here teaching of evolution should 'be banned from science as it isn't science'.

Would any of you object to Lamarkian evolution, Hindu creation, Hopi creation or UFO seed theories being taught alongside Creation, ID and Evolution?

I already know your answers, so I will try and give you something to think about. Often what we are trying to obtain comes back to haunt us. Is there a standard that you want the schools to uphold when it comes to teaching our children. If so, what is that standard and how should it be determined?

Specifically since it is obvious that schools can’t teach everything, what should be the basis for determining whether Lamarkian evolution, creationism, evolution or UFO seed theory should be taught?
