It shouldn't be the state's job to teach children evolution. Evolution is a theory and therefor requires a sort of faith to believe in since it isn't proven. That makes it a form of religion.

The state also teaches the theory of relativity and the theory of universal gravitation. Should they stop?

Why is it just because you're christian you assume a god exists. Just because all your life your mommy or daddy or church tells you there is a god doesn't make it true either.

If evolution were true we would still see it happening even on the most minute scale in the course of tie that we have been watching and documenting things around us not one evolutionary development has been noted.
I believe the Gods made us and this planet we live on.

not FOR your parent's but because that's how you were brought up. Stop deliberately misunderstanding things, it just makes you look like even more of an idiot.

They don't question their religion. They dedicate their LIFE in this belief system when there are other religions/ideas out there. I'm not about to dedicate my life to a religion just because I was born into it. That is a decision that I myself will decide based on what i know when I have studied those subject entirely.
I don't understand how christians can say there IS a god and he created ALL this, when all they have is FAITH. They think there is more to existence then what is on this earth.
