I caught a special on Showtime that followed a school district in Georgia in which residents and even teachers demanded that creation be added to scientific textbooks as an option to evolution. Unbelievably the issue was passed and the likes of evolution is one to be contemplated beside that of creation. One of the arguments by the creation side, that fossils aren't found deep enough to prove the earth isn't older than around 4000 years. Carbon dating, an old method at best, can wipe this theory out. Next, the Grand Canyon is the result of the great flood. Granite carved in this manner with a flood huh? The only voice of reason was that of a science teacher at the school, from good old NYC, who found the idea and ruling preposterous. These people found a way to push the church into schools under the guise of science. They stress they want their children to decide for themselves, yet the idea is absurd with no scientific proof. These religious fundamentalists stress that evolution is only a theory that has no proof either. I believe they need to go back to school, one with textbooks from other school districts.
