Default Stupid is as stupid does...

When a student in Louisiana opens her textbook in biology class, she
might not have the standard Miller and Levine Biology with a dragonfly
on the cover, and she might not ever learn about evolution. For some
Louisiana *public school* students, their science textbook is the Bible,
and in biology class they read the Book of Genesis to learn the
“creation point of view.”

Ah, Louisiana is raising its next generation of ignorant, stupid,
superstitious morons… The bible has no place in the public schools as a
source of factual material.

Suggest you go read your own link again. They are not primarily
teaching creationism as "the" origin of life. They also teach the
concept of evolution.

Both are presented as theories and creationism is presented as an
argument against the theory of evolution. It's not singularly taught in
the biology class curriculum.

The bible has no place in the public's schools as "an argument against
the theory of evolution. The ignorant simply do not understand what
"theory" means in the context of evolutionary theory.

Actually, the bible has no place in the public's K-12 schools, other
than a brief mention of it as the underpinning of several religions.

Here's the problem as I see it. These kids are going to public school
and learning the "approved" course of evolution in their biology class.
This makes the federal government and people like yourself happy.

Then, particularly in the south, they learn about creationism at home or
in their Sunday School classes.

They are now confused. Which is the correct story?

Isn't it better to present both as theories that people can make their
own minds up about? Isn't that the purpose of general education?
Why does it have to be only one discussion?

No. There is nothing but "faith" underpinning creationism. It is nothing
more than superstition.

It's the misunderstanding of the word "theory" in "theory of evolution"
that confuses people. It's not a theory in the commonly accepted meaning
of that word.

Evolution is a fact. Creationism is based upon non-factual, non-provable
religious belief.

The teaching of religious beliefs as "historical" or "factual" has no
place in the public schools.

Yes, particularly in the history books, and that is not confined to
the southern states.
