US states consider laws allowing Creationism to be taught by science teachers

[Blue3]

Wasn't this stuff thrown it by the courts in the mid-2000's?

How about teaching both viewpoints? Or teaching evolution and atleast mentioning the ideas of creationism?

You can teach creationism... in a social studies lesson on Christianity, as well as social studies lessons on Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Taoism, Confucianism, and Sikhism.

Or maybe as a political issue in a civics/current events class.

Or reading Genesis in English class... along with the Qur'an, Greek Mythology, Norse Mythology, and other creation stories.



Science is: the process of verifying knowledge, and the sum total of verifiable knowledge that was generated by that process.

[Blue3]

The Priest who taught Theology at my Catholic High School would often shut up students who didn't believe in the science behind evolution just because of a belief in creationism.

It was echoed by the school at large.

The Catholic Church has long said there's nothing inherently contradicting with its teachings and the scientific theory of evolution.
