Absolutely!! So why are the Discovery Institute and so many fundamentalists so intent on changing school curriculum with nonsense? Jeez, the US has already had to endure this stuff after the Scopes trial. It was only the USSR space stuff that the US system gathered its senses and followed true science. It would appear that Islam and creationists want to force the world back to the dark ages.
The National Center for Science Education gives teachers lessons on how to reconcile science and religion. Think about that The NCSE is against religious views in science if they include any intelligent design but yet they advocate the mixing of the two according to the rules they have established.
There are scientists such as Richard Dawkins, William Provine, David Barash, Stephen Pinker, Jacob Weisberg, Sam Harris, and a many other people who use evolution to tear apart Judeo-Christian beliefs and replace them with atheistic beliefs from science. Where is the cry from the scientific community about this mixing of religion and politics?
What about Dick Dawkins latest book - - The God Delusion?
Where is the outcry about the Bright Movement which has there own wedge document that was established by leading evolutionists?
The movement's three major aims are:I am not a creationist but I am not blind.
A. Promote the civic understanding and acknowledgment of the naturalistic worldview, which is free of supernatural and mystical elements.
B. Gain public recognition that persons who hold such a worldview can bring principled actions to bear on matters of civic importance.
C. Educate society toward accepting the full and equitable civic participation of all such individuals.
