Few groups can boast the anti-evolutionists' rate of being wrong so often on so many topics. ( Ichneumon)

WestVirginaRebel and Ichneumon,

While I support the theory of evolution and want my own children knowledgable in the subject, the question isn't evolution or ID. Please note that the issue at hand is the teaching of evolution in the government schools.

Ah,,,government schools! FORCE is the problem!

While I personally support evolution, I would NEVER force this on resistant children who are in any school involuntarily.,,,,neither,,,,would I force other citizens to pay for forcing it on resistant children.

There is the little matter of freedom of conscience. If evolution is worthwhile those of us who support it should be able to use **persuasion** to encourage others to study it.

The solution: Begin the process of abolishing government education. What is needed is complete separation of SCHOOL and state!
