At least one lie would be out of the mix. More and more leading scientist are coming to conclusions that Darwin was wrong, yet, they don't share this other evidence with our children.

Hmmm. Let's see. The study of medicine, particularly the development of new viruses and bacteria, would be impossible. Biology would be come irrelevant because all species would be seen as simply cast upon the earth and the process of change would be dictated as impossible. The United States would be left behind by the rest of the world in scientific knowledge, because anyone wanting to study science would be go elsewhere. The US would join the Muslim countries in a new Dark Ages, in which critical thinking was seen as heretical. There's a start of an answer.

It would help sculpt children into sensitive spiritual beings, as we are designed to be. In place of evolution they could not teach just the bible, but teach the philosophies of many great spiritual teachings, such as Socrates who claims we are all one and Descartes who teaches the soul is located in the pituitary gland, and teach Life is suffering as Buddha taught, and of course the words of Jesus. It would also be beneficial to society if we taught all children to be tolerant and considerate of all faiths. Its important to remember all the assassinations of the great peace keepers. Starting of course with Socrates, Jesus, Gandhi, Lincoln, Martin Luther King, John Lennon....IMAGINE a world where Peace, Love, Acceptance, and Tolerance are on the curriculum!!!

These issues are taught only in college, by then, it just seems a little to late, and not everyone is fortunate enough to attend college.

Yes, the world would be a better place if all the teachers were christian and the news media was not so slanted to the left

But:

In the secular schools they should teach several theories since none have been proven yet.

That would change the US anyway, because I would go into full on revolt.

Evolution is scientific fact. Anyone who says it isn't either hasn't seen the tons and tons of evidence available at their local public museum or they think that science is 'evil'. You know, like the science that developed the SUV you drive to your mega-church.

Now please people, read the Bible, you know you haven't... stop lying. Than read a science book. See. They can get along. They've gotten along pretty well since after the church executed Galileo.

Yeah, it would stop the idea of freedom of mind. Evolution is taught as a theory, but if we were to teach religion as a theory, we would have to go through all of them. That's why we have different classes for those subjects, mainly theology and mythology.

Religions or believes are causing the troubles (even wars) of this world. This will always be so as long as religions are being forced on us, or as long as we believe in them. Creation as found in the bible is absolutely chidish, evolution is a fact.

The average IQ of the world would drop by a large percent, and the planet would plunge into ignorance. Return the dark ages.

cmon people! why do you think evolution is a BELIEF? i hear all the time, ''i dont believe in evolution'' religion is a bunch of campfire stories, while the greatest minds the planet has ever seen work out the details of our existence piece by piece thru science. get over it and join the 21st century!
