The real problem is that Darwinism is not just being used to teach elements of biology to children - it's being used as a foundation to "disprove" the existence of a Creator to generations of students.

What's your evidence for this assertion?

It's "true" by definition. "Darwinism" is a political term, encompassing not only the actual work of Charles Darwin on evolution by natural selection, but also a non-spiritual explanation for the origins of the universe and a non-spiritual explanation for the origins of life on earth.

The proof is that "evolution as the source of all life" is the standard curricula thoughout our public school systems, thanks to the NEA and other leftist organizations. The only familiarization with "religion" that the kids get is another set of standardized courses, greek mythology.

It doesn't take a Rhodes Scholar to understand where this trail is designed to lead... After all, if science can prove everything and religions are represented by the Greek pantheon, then social maneuverings like abortion, gay lifestyles, and the whole Clinton administration is easily explained.
