| Ok, firebreathing one, I'm gonna make this as simple as I possibly can:
Teach what scientists know for a fact happened If the student has religeous beliefs that contradict it, let him believe what he wants, but his belief is wrong.
For example, evolution, and basically Judaism and Christanity, including catholicism, would all be compatible with the fossil record that evolution is based on, IFF (ask a math type) the old testament is translated properly! The only reason the fossil record is desputed by Christians is because they have been fooled into thinking that the King James Bible is the word of God, when in fact it is a watered down, filtered, censored, edited and quadruple translated version of the word of the God they (we with me) believe in.
Those who belive in a different creator will just have to accept that whatever they call their creator, or WTFever he wants from them, he/she/it/they created this planet and everything on it in a specific time frame and in a specific order that cannot be disputed. And if it conflicts with the english version of their Holy Book/Scripture/post it notes/WTFever they will just have to assume that something was lost or distorted in the translation somewhere and turned into some other inaccurate unti of time or got it's order scrambled, which is exactly what happened to the Christians, who think this planet was in fact created in six days, which is of course, completely rediculous.
Clean toe caps and a filthy mouth!
Low morals and high morale! |
