This thread has nothing to do with politics. It is a very spirited thread.

Also, the part that early christianity played in the evolution of the Roman Empire, the unification of Midieval Europe, the various twists and intrigue that played out over the centuries is fascinating. All this stuff can be read from a perspective of inquiry, wholly separate from one's own personal perspective (which I'm not even getting into here). There's so much to learn about. So little time!

Because the former is science, the latter is religion.
So it's okay to teach that the world "evolved" but not that it was "created"?
It is fine at a church or a religious school...
Then evolution should be kept in a separate arena!!
No. Don't you believe we came from monkeys??
Monkeys or dirt that is the question..
