Also, if evolution is such a deeply-proven FACT, then why on earth is there still so much controversy (in a nationwide pole on MSNBC in 2002, approximately 55% of those surveyed said they did not object to the teaching of creation science in the classroom).
The controversy is generated by individuals and organizations who don't understand the science and/or lie about it.
I know some people who have held to the idea of "equal time" in the science classrooms. Some of those, when exposed to what the creationists actually want realize that there is no equal time deserved.
Personally, I would love to see creationism studied in the science classroom. We have discussed that in other threads. If that was done in just the places where there is the most vocal crying out for it then there outcrys would
really get loud! Creationism, if examined in a science classroom carefully, would get ripped to shreads. Observe how, on this forum, creastionists run from the detailed difficult questions about the age of the earth, the flood and the evidence for evolution. We haven't had a creationist take on the dates and dating forum for some weeks now.
They spend weeks arguing in the faith and belief forums though.
