The ADL position has absolutely nothing to do with science. It is based on the thesis that words written by Jews, whether modern or ancient, belong only to Jews, and not others.

Ergo, non-Jews who use the Biblical Creation account are, in the eyes of the ADL leadership, violating Jewish rights to their own heritage, that is, the Bible.

In short, the ADL position is always one of bigotry and is never designed to advance the progress of society as a whole. They're about 2000 years too late to make such a claim, but they do.

The U.S. Constitution guarantees the rights of Americans to believe the religious theories of creation (as well as other theories) but it does not permit them to be taught in public school science classes.

Where does the Constitution say anything about what may or may not be taught in public school science classes?

[Hajman]

Creationism, creation science, intelligent design and other theories that set out to challenge widely held scientific explanations about the origin of the universe have no place in the public school curriculum.

Interesting choice of words..

"The U.S. Constitution guarantees the rights of Americans to believe the religious theories of creation (as well as other theories) but it does not permit them to be taught in public school science classes."

See that bulls**t in bold? Prove it. [HINT: you can't if you know the first thing about the Constitution.]

"Any effort to introduce a theological doctrine into the public school curricula would inevitably offend some teachers and students."

More utter horses**t. Show me ONE "moral teaching" that won't "offend" someone. I don't care; not a whit. I couldn't care less any longer who gets "offended" by Judeo-Christian values. I just don't give a flying fiddler's damn, because they sure as all HELL don't care about offending me and those like me. Let's have a "war of the offended", and they'll bloody-well lose.

Oh, how I despise such drooling pantywaists.

But the various aspects of intelligent design theory have not yet been subjected to the normal process of scientific experimentation and debate, nor have they been accepted by the scientific [atheist] community. No research supporting the claims of intelligent design has ever been published in any recognized, professional, peer-reviewed scientific journal [dominated by a board of atheists]. Finally, the question of whether there is an intelligent designer is untestable using the [corrupted biased]methods of [modern atheist dominated evolutionary]science, and therefore is not a scientific claim [that is approved by atheists].

Thanks, this is a good post.

But you know that the religous nuts on this site are never convinced with logic. They would burn both of us at the stake for heresy if this nation was a theocracy, which many of them would prefer to our blessed democratic republic!

B'nai Brith (Sons of the Covenant) is a Jewish "lodge" with roots in the 19th century, when "lodges" became popular in America. They started the ADL to fight defamation of the Jews.

Abe Foxman took a somewhat outmoded but basically decent civil rights organization and turned it into the Jewish equivalent of Operation Push. No wonder B'nai Brith severed their ties with ADL, even though they started it.

What is behind the current debate about religious theories of creation?

The short answer is because the Homosexuals (Hedonists) and Atheists can teach their religion in school, but no other faiths can be mentioned, unless they're anti-American (like radical Islam).
