What I think that we all should be arguing about is whether the so-called "creation science" is really science, and therefore valid material in school science classes. What an individual wishes to believe in is not really of any concern to anyone else unless it is depriving that other of concrete rights, such as life, liberty, et. al. I personally don't care if the so-called "creation science" is placed in the schools in a comparative religion class, or political science even, but I have yet to see anyone present valid evidence that it is qualified to be called science. Disproving evolution doesn't count as proof of any other theory, folks. BTW, I've found that rather often, anti-evolutionists use arguments against evolution that are in fact arguments FOR it!! But they make some bizarre leap of (non)logic to end the argument against St. Darwin.(:-)) [It's no good, Col. Glenn.
