"Renata"
Speaking of the educational system (and without reading the ENTIRE
thread)...


There's nothing like a fool stepping forward to introduce himself.



My theory is that ole Fred went to schools that had a pretty good
foundation in science, whereas ole Fletis probably didn't.


My theory is that you didn't go to school, period.



You want your kids to learn about God in school, send them to a
private religious institution. Really.


If we let parents decide where to spend their money that would
certainly happen more frequently but you missed the point, apparently
since you didn't feel it was necessary to read what you were responding to.



Part of my basis for these statements is my background - went to
Catholic school for 12 years (horrors! ;-) We learned science kinda
stuff in the vaious science classes (you know, chemistry, physics,
biology, etc.). Then, the idea of an intelligent designer as a
possible explanation for the wonders and origins of the universe was
given in RELIGION class. 'Cause, you can't TEST the idea of ID using
the scientific method (a kinda fundamental requirement of SCIENCE).


Well, I'm glad they mentioned the possibility of an intelligent designer
somewhere in your Catholic school and maybe they did refuse to
answer any question regarding origins in science class but that isn't
universally true in public education.

No, that isn't the issue. My argument has been on the biased
educational system, not whether we should be allowed to have
personal beliefs or demanding that God is declared real by the
scientific community.
