-I do not know or support The Kansas School Board

- I speak for the future of the US Educational system

- I believe everything that most people strongly believe in should be taught to their children

-Evolution ( all the pros and cons; facts and theories)
-Darwin ( all the pros and cons ; facts and theories)
-the various religions ( all the pros and cons;facts and theories; some would claim miracles certified by physicians to be a fact for example )
-all of the sciences ( with all the theories )
-history
-language
-all Philosophy
-all the sciences

I did that with my two boys: They have 13 AP subjects with a 4-5 in the AP Exam.
I started with them at age 4.
Others have done it too.

The children at age 18 freely decide what to believe in.

It can be done,

back tomorrow

there are proofs of various events: relics; archeological findings; dug up
instruments; buried cities; archeological findings.

It is called history.

I want my children to learn history:

So you embrace methods that endorse your view of History but
then deny those same methods when it comes to evolution?

Your points in another post regarding a balanced curiculum are well
taken. Can you see this happening in Kansas?

I understood the issue here was teaching dogma as science.

In my parochial school the two were clearly seperated via Religious Studies, Social Studies, History, Biology and Chemistry.
