Even more of the pervasive indoctrination of children that some ignore

I know, huh! I would love a Jarrassic Park! I bought my kids a library of dinosaur books by Scolastic as some if their first books! I loved the look on people's faces when my young son would talk about pleosaurus, or diplodocus! Describe their characteristics and tell them if they were a carnivore, herbivore or an omnivore! Lol

Jurassic... they may have taught you about dinosaurs, but spelling obviously was not a lesson learned.

Shortly after my oldest son started kindergarten we got a call from his teacher asking us to talk to him about how to correct someone, especially a teacher. Apparently she was talking about a brontosaurus, and my shy little one raised his hand and informed her that there was no such thing as a brontosaurs, it was an apatasaurus skeleton with the wrong skull on it.

Lol, that's a hard one, sorry my kid was right. Next time tell her in private she is wrong?

When it is a private school they can teach the religious views. Now, if we took away the certifications of the schools it would be one thing. But banishing creationism from the classroom in a private, religious school is unconstitutional.

It's obscene and bordering on child abuse that they are teaching this crap in a science class. I don't necessarily advocate state action but there are plenty of other things that might be done. AiG and Ham are being supported by a large number of right wing wackos.

No, basic biology shows I am correct. But you go ahead and add 'philosophy' and 'feelings' and pretend you are adding to the 'science'

Most biologists basically disagree with you. You offered absolutely nothing to support your argument.

If you are going to constantly try to hijack my threads then at least try to be less redundant. You have become little more than another one of the douchebag right wing trolls.

The bright side is that when the brighter of these students get into an actual college biology class and realize how badly they have been lied to by creationists, they are often inoculated against irrational religious belief as an adult. I work on a college campus and it happens every day.

Why do people believe that scientists are smart enough to understand genetics and clone a mouse from a drop of blood, but too stupid to understand things about the beginning of life and common descent? Seems like a huge contradiction to me...
