I find it interesting that, while you seem willing to entertain either argument : neither is based upon physical evidence.

In geology, the assumption that the Earth is only a few thousand years old is not a productive assumption exactly because the evidence doesn't support such a position.

That is why science should be taught in science class; because it discusses the evidence - not the relative merits of the King James manuscripts and the Alexandrian manuscripts.

I'm just glad to see Rand Paul on my side. It's as much of a "Go, Team, Rah Rah!!" moment for me as anything else.

As long as we can separate Schooling and State, Evolutionism will die on the vine. There's a lot more Creationists and Theistic Evolutionists than there are Atheistic Evolutionists in these United States, and we breed more children. Without the massive Subsidy that Evolutionism receives from Government School support, it will be wiped out by simple demographics in a few generations.
