If you support teaching your particular religious views of creationism instead of the science of evolution; do you similarly support teaching the (supposed) history of the Semitic people in America as put forth by the Book of Mormon in history class in Utah? Should the teachings of the Quran prevail in Muslim dominated areas of Michigan (they are also creationists, if that helps you decide)?

Of course. Parents should be free to decide what sort of education their children receive.

That's Capitalism.

And as I said: why don't you just support returning to Creationist Parents the $10,000 per-child, per-year which is currently extorted from them for the teaching of Evolutionism -- and prepare to marvel at the sudden, massive demand which will erupt for scientist-educators from the Discovery Institute, the Institute for Creation Research, the Creation Research Society, and the many other Creation Science foundations.

Of course, many Evolutionists will very quickly be out of a job, without Government Subsidies for the teaching of Child-Abuse Evolutionism. We Parents will not support Child Abusers with our purchasing dollars, for ANY amount of alleged post-graduation "payoff", given the Economic Choice.

Oh really?

If every government school shut down, suddenly petroleum exploration companies and biotechnology companies will start hiring creationists instead of scientists?

Delusional.

I do support shutting down public education. Problem with reading comprehension?

The post graduation “payoff” is the Free Market finding a value for trained scientists that they have not found for creationists.

Why do you suppose there is a Free Market demand for actual scientists, but no similar demand for creation scientists?

Because capitalism, like natural selection, tends to find out what WORKS.

Science creates value in terms of discovery and use.

Creationism creates nothing of any value in terms of discovery and use.
