Genesis is not a science book.

Trust me. The Bible is easier to learn than evolution. People spend decades of intensive studying to completely grasp every facet of evolution.

Actually Genesis does describe the evolution of Earth. It is beleive by many that when the 7 days is spoken of in Genesis that it wasn't and couldn't have been 24 hour segments.
"Science and the Bible are in perfect harmony. There is no evidence to suggest the Bible is inaccurate in any of its statements regarding creation or scientific facts. In fact, the more advances are made in science, the more it has proven the truth of the Bible!
As science has advanced over the centuries, stunning discoveries have shown that not only is the Bible scientifically accurate, but the Bible actually made scientific statements about nature hundreds of years before man discovered them! For example, look at the following….
-The Bible said that the earth was round 1600 years before man figured it out. (Isa. 40:22)
-The Bible said that the earth is suspended in space 3600 years before man discovered it. (Job 26:7)
-The Bible said that the universe is running down only 2500 years before man found out. (Isaiah 51:6, Ps. 102:26, Rom 8:20-21)
-The Bible said that blood sustains life 3300 years before man would agree. (Lev. 17:11)
-The Bible said the stars produce sound 4000 years before man found out. (Job 38:7)

Why should it be wrong for a Christian to study someone else´s theory, or better to say religion? It's still an unproven theory, and it's good to know about it and what it says and where it is lacking and even contradicting science (second law of thermodynamics)
Shall quote Charles Darwin, "I was a young man with unformed ideas. I threw up queries, suggestions, wondering all the time over everything; and to my astonishment, the ideas took like wildfire. People made a religion of them."

To have the knowledge of and ability to explain the theory of evolution is not the same thing as believing it. The best debators understand the view and theory of the other side....

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story. Obviously they ignore or write off any science that goes against what they believe in.

If they must take the class they read and study like any other student. However, they will never exchange their faith for the logic of some theories that have yet to be proven.

College is a place where you get indoctinated with liberal and anti-Christian views.
Just cause I regeretate the material does not mean that I uphold or adhere to their beliefs.

I don't think an honest creationist would still adhere to their beliefs after taking a college course on biology.

I told to my children that at the beginning of every answer in their exams they must write. "According with the author (writer of the book)....".
This way my children do not lie.

I guess the same way that atheists can pass a course in "Religious Studies".

Courses on science require knowledge...not necessarily belief...unfortunately.
