12. Why in science class?
Science is for science, not religion. When you start with the notion that religious doctrine offers legitimate theory, you open the door for people to disregard science. That's one of the main reasons we're falling behind in science to begin with. We've got hoards of students who laugh at science based on their religious doctrine. What happens when students start believing more in Noah's Ark than dinosaurs? Did dinosaurs really exist or did God really just put those bones here to test our faith? Two legitmate theories on dinosaurs? The Grand Canyon wasn't created from erosion, it was really the flood? Where does it end?
