Teaching religion in a science class is wrong. It is an attack on my kid's education.
I think I'm begining to see whats motivating you Rick! You are hung up on the dangers of religion. You try to redefine a simple theory which is not scientifically proved as containing a religious theme. A teacher should not mention the intelligent design theory because it is not scientific! Baloney. The fact that something more than random chance started the universe is 'verbotten' because it might be construed as religious and taint the scientific endeavors of humankind. Balderdash!
An extrmely narrow view.

Education is something broader than that. It should cover whats provable as well as what isn't. We are still looking for answere in how it all began. Different approaches to problem solving are well known in many elements of society.

If it had all the answers it wouldn't be science
Brilliant observation.. now explain it? What would it be?
If we didn't have an answer for an unknown should we not address it? Should we not mention it? Should we relegate it to the religious pile of unsolved mysteries?I keep asking you that and it doesn't seem to come through to you. duh?


Thus we play the fools with the time, and the spirits of the wise sit in the clouds and mock us.
