    Why is it necessary for a group of individuals to impose either their religious or secular beliefs on others? Wouldn't it be logical to teach the theory of creationism in theology classes and the theory of evolution in science classes?

    I agree with you 100%. Creationism is NOT science. There is an interesting PBS series on Darwinism, evolution & religion that addresses these questions. I also object strenuously when religious people try to force their views on others in secular institutions. Remember a few years ago when Walmart decided to use "Happy Holiday" signs instead of "Merry Christmas". As a Jew, I apprecieted their more inclusive message; however, some Christian extremists boycotted Walmart as being anti-Christian. I couldn't believe it! Walmart is a store, not a church! And public school is not a church. As far as I'm concerned. Just Curious

    My "Diversity" class is using Yforum for the 1st time. One individual believes that evolution is a religion.
