Ummmmm ... what part of evolution is dictated by the government? I wasn't aware that the "state" had any jurisdiction over naturally occuring genetic mutations.
I could be wrong though ...

practise evolution as a truth isn't incorrect. Evolution is actual. technological expertise has shown that that is actual. What maximum individuals have a situation with is that non secular communities do no longer opt for to imagine that we developed from something, such as apes. They shouldn't tutor faith in a technological expertise type because there is no medical info to help it. What they ought to do is have a faith type and in that type they communicate about each and every of the diverse religions and their man or woman beliefs in a non-biased, genuine way. technological expertise should be left on my own to tutor the beliefs of scientists. Now, a instructor who says the bible is faulty is an fool, with the aid of the indisputable fact that instructor's evaluations aren't any more meant to be expressed. instructor's aren't any more meant to exhibit their political opinions and that i trust they ought to do a similar about their non secular beliefs. that is going to be non-biased. faculties ought to cutting-edge the info and then go away the fellow to make up their very personal concepts.

It doesn't especially since the government as a whole has neither accepted nor rejected the theory of evolution. It has nothing to do with seperation of church and state. That phrase has been misused so many times I'm suprised everyone doesn't have a constant migraine from it.

WOW! Could you distort that any more? The question was asked "should" they teach evolution in Sunday school. The person was simply responding that the government should not be mandating what is taught in a Sunday school.
It seemed pretty obvious to me.

Separation of church and state is only to prevent suppression of religion by state or enforcing it by state laws.
Teaching of evolution has no place in a Sunday School. Sunday School is about God and His creation and not about what scientists think as to how human beings came to be.
And FYI, genetic mutations produce only intra-species variations governed by genetic laws. To break those laws to produce another species requires the fertile imagination of evolutionists. Sorry, imagination which is a part of evolution theory is, strictly speaking, not science.

Evolution is contradictory to the Bible, and is no where taught in scripture.
We are not in the business of teaching other world views or philosophies, unless it is for witnessing or apologetics.

They do not understand the separation protects them from government intrusion in church as well as church intrusion into government.

More importantly, is the government running or funding Sunday School now?

Churches may teach whatever they want to. Evolution IS taught in some of them as I understand it - it's just not pro evolution.
The inference of many is that churches ought to bow to the popular secular beliefs. I would disagree with that implication. Churches may be free to teach whatever they want, and the congregation has choices on where to send their children.

I don't know about that, but it would certainly be the case of bringing the cat to a mice congregation.
