Should we teach both evolution and religion in school?

Both? Do you have any idea how many creation myths there are? Or are you just presuming that your favorite story will be the alternative selected?Actually the title of the thread is poorly worded, as it doesn't make the context clear. Should kids be taught about religion? Sure. And physics, and grammar, and history too. If the thread were titled "Should we teach both evolution and English grammar in school?" would that make any sense? Of course not. Why? Because grammar and science are not alternatives to one another. When you say... ...you are making a statement that is conceptually nonsensical unless you have previously determined that certain religious claims are actually scientific in nature.So, should religion be taught? Sure, along with as many other things as possible. Should one brand of religion be injected into science class as if it were actually science? No. That would be lying.

You know, most people make up stories that make them look smarter than they actually are. Just sayin'...

Is that the special kind of freedom where you get to lie about reality? Rather poorly executed false dichotomy, wouldn't you say? Do you troll/poe so many places that you can't even take the time to pretend you're trying? Getting boooooring....

Oooh gosh, I have a better idea. Why don't you explain it to them? You know: write a paper, go to a meeting, something like that? This seems an odd place for someone with your penetrating insight to hang out, if you know what I mean. And I'm pretty sure you do, that's why you're here.Clown.
