So the students can't make up their own minds?

I love this one. It exactly mimics the new age movement of the 1960s. Teachers don't know anything and everyone can make up his/her own mind. Did Thomas Jefferson draft the Declaration of Independence? Did Stalin actually exist? If you divide 1/2 by 3/4 do you actually get 2/3? Let every student make up his/her own mind! Exams and grades can go out the window.
I think you can't be serious.
Sure they can. They can take what they studied in science, compare it to what they have studied in church or discussed with their parents, and make up their own mind.
Knowledge and information are funny that way, learn it here, apply it there.
