Sapphi not trying to be offensive but this is what I was talking about. Your stereotyping creationism. Creationism is not a single theory that earth was made in seven physical days, like many uneducated Athiests believe. Their are over 12- different creationist theories from protestant Christian scientists that I have heard of not to mention the many theories from scientists around the world.

Creationism is a science based theology just like Evolution. Infact some creationist theories even include Macro Evolution and many include Micro Evolution things we are taught in school. Its highly ignorant to judge all theories but Darwinian evolution as un-scientific.

Plus right in your post you say that theology has no place in school, then why should the theory of Macro Evolution , Big Bang, Abiogenesis? None of those three theories are anymore scientific then the many Creationist theories. None of the three are scientific fact, all of them and infact all the methods of creation I was taught in school all of them were theories.

If theology has no place in schools then no theories at all should be taught. Leave the guessing and faith out of our schools. I agree whole heartedly that nothing un-factual should be taught in school unless it is in a theology course which give all faith based theories equal attention.

So yes your right evolution (Other then Micro) should be kept out of our schools. Theories have no place in the classroom!

Also, due to the separation between Church and State, public schools aren't allowed to indoctrinate students with the beliefs of any religion.

Don't see the problem with scientific theories. And evolution, big bandg etc., aren't baseless statements, such as those made by religions.


Exactly Macro Evolution is a religious belief as is Abiogenesis and the Big Bang. Infact their are darwinian churches. So by law and seperation of church and state the religion of Athiesm should not be allowed in our schools.

Darwinism is a faith based religion. Infact any belief in a creator is a religion "a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe" Now sure religions up until the 20th century always revolved around supernatural beings but the lack of such beings doesn't mean it is not a religion.

The belief of cause or nature of the Universe make all forms of Athiesm religious beliefs.

A common thing I get told by Athiests is, "We believe in Science what we can see and touch, facts" well you can't see or touch or observe or repeate or falsify the creation of the earth. No matter which way you slice it you need to have faith in an unseen power to explain how life or even the Universe came into existance.

The only people who really aren't religious are agnostics. Every single belief in a creator of the Universe is following or creating a religion.
