If I wanted to teach children Darwinism in theology classes, would creationists mind then? I mean after all the believing in scientific principles might be relied on enough to count as a religion...

Every church should be forced to post a sign outside saying that all they teach is speculation and other ideas should be looked at with an open mind. Just like the stickers on biology textbooks in Georgia, USA.

Hey, it's not all of GA, just one rich, white, suburban, Republican county.

Once again, Darwin WAS a Christian. So yes, teach it and teach the truth and not this hateful arguement that has become so popular.

no. teach creationism in theology lesson and darwinism in science lesson. you can't learn something on the wrong lesson, because that just confuse the students.
