Topic: Evolution
Quote: Just as people have their views on this forum, parents have their views out there, and if a parent does not want their kid to learn about evolution because they believe in creationism, I think a parent has that right.
Response: But most creationists think that it is OK to force their views on everyone by requiring creationism, their religion, to be taught in school. Actually, the public schools have the obligation to teach current science - the best answers that we have today. Today, the United States ranks near the bottom in the knowledge of science and math of graduating secondary school children. Only in our universities do we begin to do the job. But check out the number of foreign teachers we have in our universities. We are doing such a bad job that we have to go elsewhere to find adequately trained individuals.\n
