Do atheist/Jewish/Asian/Muslim etc... parents not have objections to this? I suppose these would be the same objections Christians have to evolution. But in these areas, surely non-Christians are in the severe minority. And I suppose there would be greater apathy amongst atheists than Christians, you guys can be outspoken to the point of militancy! Look at the home schooling phenomenon.

As Daughter of Vana said (and she's completely right) at public schools Christian creationism isn't the only thing taught, and I believe some Jewish and Muslim groups have their own variety of creationism that still fits in there somewhere.
At private Christian schools it might be the only thing taught but it *is* in the context of religious studies, because religion is considered to be an integral part of all learning.
This is one of those discussions that should never have gotten off topic... [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]
