Intelligent Design
I really don't see what the big deal is with intelligent design vs evolution. I believe in seperation of church and state. All though I am religious, there's proof of evolution and I don't see how someone can deny that. Just because there is proof of evolution, however, it does not just end religion, why can't they both be true? My belief is that it is the church's job to teach religion, but because there are many different religions in our country, who are we to teach ONE religion at a a school and say it is the right one. There could be a class that taught about different religions, but it is the choice of the student whether they want to take it or not. I think evolution should be taught in schools it is a proven theory, and the choice of the student whether to believe it or not. By stopping our school's from teaching evolution and just teaching intelligent design, where is the line that crosses between our freedom of religion and the seperation of church and state? If someone wants their kid to only learn about religion then they can go to a religious based school, but in the public school system, it is the job of the teachers and school board to be open to all religious believes and to make it's students aware of the scientific version of things, religious beliefs are from there, the choice of the student.
