Bill: here's the definition of religion: re·li·gion    the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods"  I have absolutely no problem with you holding the religious beliefs of your choice.  

As you know the Constitution and hundreds of Court decisions based on it, have established the concept of "separation of church and state."  This includes NOT using tax dollars to promote any religion...again, a concept which is firmly established.

You don't pay a penny "to promote (my) religious beliefs."  Neither do I or anyone else.  You and many Christian fundamentalists attempt to equate the curriculum taught in public schools WITH religion.  The fact that your religious beliefs impact your view of such topics as evolution does not make the teaching of evolution, ipso facto, teaching religion.  That's a false equivalency.

As I suggested above.....Home school your kids...It is NOT expensive.  It's your choice.  best regards, Gary Crum
