I think both sides should remember that both creationism and evolution are theories.

Yes, evolution is a scientific theory. Is it your position that creationism is a scientific theory?

It would be interesting to see the reaction if creationism WERE treated as a scientific theory in science class. Let's put Genesis on the dissecting table and teach the controversy. Teach critical analysis, using Genesis as the casebook.

Creationism is a theory in the sense that it is an attempt by man to explain the world around him. I work with a great guy who is an atheist who, like many evolutionists, present it to their students as fact. That was really my point - that evolution is a theory and not fact. BTW, you might be surprised to learn that there is scientific evidence that supports creationism. I didn't really realize that there was until one of my students lent me his copy of The Answer Book. I can't remember the author's name and I can't get Amazon.com to come up to check it for you.
