I was pleasantly surprised at the news today that at least one-third of teachers in the UK believe that Creationism should be taught in schools. The article begins:Teach pupils creationism at school, say third of staffWhat should be noted is that this survey did not occur to science teachers only but all teachers. Some evolutionists will concede that Creationism can be taught in public schools just not in science classes. Furthermore, some evolutionists suggests that other creation stories besides that found in the Bible be taught. I have addressed this issue of Christianity in the schools in an earlier blog. It should also be noted that this survey did not ask teachers if they would argue with their school administrations over teaching Creationism.

Mr. Martin, if you can come up with one good reason why creationism should be taught in schools outside of a "ridiculous wack-o theories" class than please...feel free to design that curriculum. The inclusion of creationism in a science class would further show the dumbing down of Western schooling.
