Re: rhetoric like a brick wall
randman,
I don't believe 2/3rds of Americans are mere dupes.
I do.
IMO, present the factual arguments. Education is not a bad thing. If ToE is so superiour to creationism and ID, then it will be apparent, and if not, then truth is served.
The "truth" has already been served.
The earth is ~4.5 billion years old, not 6,000. As per the EVIDENCE.
Noah's flood not only lacks global evidence, but there is contradsictory evidence too.
Evolution has many lines of multidisciplinary evidence, creation has none.
That's why 2/3rds of the US are dupes, if your figures are to be believed. They're stupid enough to ignore the fact that they have no evidence in their favour, falsifying evidence against them, & their opponents have evidence in support of their position, & they STILL want creationism taught.
It's religion, not science. Teach it by all means, but 2/3rds of Americans are going to have to go to sunday school.

There are 10 kinds of people in this world; those that understand binary, & those that don't
