    I'm not in America but I do go to school and I can't believe how stupid and crazy America can be sometimes and the idea that creationism should be taught in PUBLIC schools as a science seems beyond the limits of human stupidity and the only thing more ridiculous is that people are falling for it. Evolution is scientific fact with huge amounts of evidence behind it and is accepted in the science community. Creationism is an idea that was created by those who believe the bible is true and is based of belief and has no solid scientific base yet there are those who want it to be thought of as a science. I don't mind what a person believes in however in a public school run by a government, science should be about scientific fact and not group beliefs. Even if everyone in a public science classroom believes in creationism the public school system must teach science based on proof and not ideas based on faith. There are those that believe that the world was created by space aliens and that human life is nothing more than a bad science experiment but that belief is not taught in schools even though it is the same as creationism but it's aliens and not God. Ahh, now I feel much better.

    Sounds great.

    You might want to open the text book or computer course and look for revisions. Those revisions are mistakes and if you take the time to look deep you will see many major mistakes or "revisions". Science is awesome and wonderful when used properly. Because of science we have many things that make life much nicer to live. I would not suggest betting your life on what a person or group of people think. The Nazi's were the leaders of the science world in the late 1930's and through the 1940's. I think that when you get into something as subjective as creation science then you are in for more of a fantasy thriller then a hard fact science.

    I don't believe in evolution.

    Personally, I believe in Odin and Ymir, the Norse creation myth, so much more believable.

    And afterall, there is no 100% proof that neither christian creationist's are evolution is correct.

    Snickers.... (sarcasm).... LOL

    I learned about evolution in a humanities class. Personally I don't believe in evolution, but rather I subscribe to the creationism theory.

    On the other hand, I think it's important to learn both theories as they are theories that can't be 100% proven one way or another.

    Sounds like a class full of nerds. Of course we SubGenii know that the universe and all life was created when Achamoth-Sophia copulated with herself.

    Well, at least they included the word "theory" in there.
