MN Lines: 12One of the problems I have with creationism being taught in public schools is the batting average of creationism's proponents. If today's astronomy was the same as in Galileo's time, you can bet the creationists would want the Geocentric model of the solar system taught alongside the Heliocentric model. Of course, they admit when they are wrong. Galileo was found innocent of heresy just a couple of years ago.
