I certainly don't have an issue with this statement -

"I think that part of education is to expose people to different schools of thought," Bush said. " You're asking me whether or not people ought to be exposed to different ideas, the answer is yes."

Of course every culture/religion has a creation story and as long as those are taught in the context of history or sociology it's OK. If they try to teach it in science courses - I would take issue with those theories.

They won't be teaching it as a mythology course. They will be teaching it as an alternative to scientific theory.

Like I've said, I've heard it all. A president suggesting we rely on mythology as an alternative to science when educating our young. Its not a surprise he opposes stem cell research.
