Quote by: kubedawg I agree that theology should not be taught in science class, but neither should the theory of evolution,

So you are saying is that the most fundamental theory to the biological sciences should not be taught in biology class? Do you also maintain that atomic theory should not be taught in chemistry class? Or the theory of gravitation in physics class?

Quote by: kubedawg which in no way proves, nor will it ever prove how we came about.

Stick to the point. Science doesn't even attempt to prove anything. Maybe you should learn what science is and how it works before you enter into debate. However, the theory of evolution pretty much explains very broadly the origins of every living thing. Scientific theories are tested explanations for observations of nature.

Quote by: kubedawg Because it comes down to belief/faith, it becomes a part of theology, therefore should not be taught in science class either.

But science is not a matter of faith. It is a matter of empirical evidence, hypothesis, prediction and testing. It comes down to the best explanation we can devise for what we observe. The theories of evolution explain life and how it has developed and changed on earth over time.

Quote by: kubedawg Basically, with the theory of evolution, it is the Earth that is the being in which we evolved over these thousands of years and so on.

Did that make sense to you?

Quote by: kubedawg Thus the reason in which I believe the theory of evolution(the part of it that's possible, even probable, but not proven) should not be taught in schools.

Again, science doesn't prove anything. Second, most scientific theories should be taught in science classes. I say most because there just isn't time to teach everything. Thus, in high school the classes only touch on the major points. Thus, evolution usually gets only passing recognition, which is probably why there is so much misunderstanding about it. Heck! Most high school graduates don't even know what science is or how it works.
