I disagree with the notion of public schools altogether, but as long as they're there, they by law must be open to religious points of view, even when such views happen to impinge upon the sciences.

All religious points of view, Fester, or just yours?

No need to reply; we already know the answer.

This is exactly the point...whose religious point of view should a public school teach?...none, as far as I am concerned...There are many religions, which I find incorrect, untrue, and some just plain dangerous...should they also be taught in public school? What about the next guy...everyone has strong objections to certain religions, where do we draw the line?

All religious points of view. Practically speaking, however, this area could be honed down to general terms and electives. I am grown up enough to realize there are adherents to different religions, including atheists, all of whom are fellow citizens entitled to an equal hearing when their tax money is spent on education. All of which goes to show public education paid for by the taxpayer is a particularly stupid idea unless one is devoted to mediocrity.
