I understand, Mary, but that wasn't me proposing it. I was somewhat attacked and belittled last night as though I was.

Now, as for what is being taught in religious schools, I will venture a guess that the Genesis creation story is NOT being taught as science in their ninth grade biology classes.

Regardless of how Wiki tries to paint the controversy, this is my guess. I read Wiki, too, but never was there offered an example of a teaching.....no passage from a textbook used in a religious school. And I haven't been able to google anything up either.

They are able to teach ID in any religious and private school setting that will have them. Why not leave it at that?

So what? I see this issue as similar to the fear of school prayer. Where is there real and measurable harm occurring to those school kids subjected to school prayer and a reading of Genesis?
