How about the secular humanist view that the world was created by a random event termed the Big Bang and that even if some sort of god did exist, he had absolutely no role in the event or subsequence turn of random events.

Everyone has a “creation” story. They differ in the details.

Scientologists believe that aliens populated the planet and bestowed on humans “imperfect” traits. There are some scientists who dress it up and say that life here came from Mars.

The “Big Bang” is based upon actual evidence. Creationism is based upon the interpretation of revealed wisdom.

Teaching that the evidence suggest the universe is expanding from an initial point of creation is compatible with the evidence and is science.

Teaching that the Earth is only a few thousand years old and that all species were created nearly simultaneously is a religious belief without evidence and is not science.

Do you think that Mormons teaching the “history” of Semitic people in the Americas in Utah public schools would be acceptable under the 1st Amendment?
