The evolutionists were angry to have "this is a theory" pasted on textbooks.

Because we understand the transparent dishonesty in demanding a "this is a theory" (and then getting the details of the theory wrong in the disclaimer) only for evolution and not for any other scientific theory.

Where is the demand for "these are only theories" stickers on physics textbooks? Why is evolution singled out for "this is only a theory" notification when every explanation within science is theory?

What is the end result of forcing the theory of evolution down children's throats?

Will it help them build a better mousetrap? Perform complicated mathematics? Establish world peace?

If it could be proven EXACTLY what caused the "big bang" and what existed before the big bang, what could 99.9% of the public school students do with their lives? Would it stop some nagging voice that makes them take drugs as a way out from life's problems?

What good is it? With all of the things kids are not able to do after attending school, why is this such a high priority?

I WOULD like a "theory" disclaimer when teachers present materials on global warming and homosexuality as a genetic trait.
