You mean another step towards think as I do or else.
If you think restricting free thought is a good thing, I pity you. You will have no problem embracing Islam, it dictates thought as well.
ID might have a place in a philosophy or religion class. It has no place in the science classroom. This is not a restriction on free thought. Just proper classification of ID as faith-based belief.
Then why shouldn't we follow the Iranians' lead & teach the controversy surrounding the Holocaust in high school history classes? A small but growing number of historians (with real PhD's, even!) are skeptical of the mainstream view. You wouldn't want to restrict free thought, would you?
Where have you been throughout this debate? This issue has nothing to do with "free thought," and if you had been paying attention, you'd know that. Now go back back and do your homework before spouting off like an ignorant fool.
Islam dictates creationism and forbids the teaching of evolution.
The point is not what can be legally said, but what should be taught in science class. If creationists want their beliefs subjected to the kind of scrutiny employed by science, then bring it on.
The evolutionists on FR are rather polite and well mannered compared to the way scientists treat each other.
