Is it proper for there to be references to origins and origins-related particulars within public-school biology classes?
Specifically, should (not can) the words "evolution," "evolutionary," "evolutionist,"
"millions of years," "billions of years," "creationism," "creationist," "Biblical creationism," "thousands of years," "Creation Week," etc. be used during scientific lectures and dialog in PUBLIC-school biology education?
If so, controversy can be caused as to differing beliefs, disbeliefs, and dogma of various conflicting types. A divisive (and not merely diverse) verbal, physical, political, and monetary battle might begin and rage on in the fight of evolutionists vs. creationists (and note that this webauthor did not instead state nor include: "creationists vs. evolutionists" as an indication of who starts problems and trouble in the first place).
As Solomon reminds us in Ecclesiastes (and I did NOT instead state: Ecclesiasticus): "There is a time and place for everything -- and that includes what to say and what to not say during general-public biology classes. It is thus certainly possible to exclude all usage of the words evolution, creationism, millions/billions of years, Creation-Week days, and the like during biology classes. It is equally possible, however, to include such words and wording within biology curriculum. Whether or not such is excluded or included depends upon who is in charge to make out test questions, determine respondant scores, grades, and report cards....who wants what suppressed and censored.....and whether the attributes of curiousity, investigativeness, and courage overrule wrongly-narrow-minded preconceptions, misconceptions, bias/prejudice, and legalistic tyranny with consequential silent timidity of potential anti-evolutionist opponents.
Both teachers and students (along with commissioners and parents) can be directed toward or away from both religious creationist communication and anti-religious evolutionist communication in public-school-curriculum classes of all subjects. Obviously, philosophy and especially religion classes are typical opportunities to explore the details of the science of theology with regard to intelligent-design questions, observations, comments, and instruction.
It is quite inappropriate for anyone [with belligerantly-ignorant rebelliousness] in any situation to attack not only obvious natural intelligent design of what exists in the physical environment around everyone, but also the logical and expected assumption (not presumption) that such design originated from a Designer. As the Psalmist reminds us: The FOOL has said in his heart: 'There is no God.' And Saint Paul of the New Testament continues with his Romans chapter one declaration that God's eternal power and deity have been clearly perceived in the things that have been made, because God has shown it to them. And: "Avoid those who profess what is falsely called science."
Notice that reference was just made to that religious text commonly called: The HOLY BIBLE. In any reasonable and common-sense SCIENTIFIC dissertation and discussion, everything and anything not obviously dangerous or lethal to explore must be taken into consideration by GENUINE open-minded scientists - especially that much-respected, astronomically-influential,
impeccably-accurate, historical-record, Sacred-66-book HOLY BIBLE.
On the other hand, the [questionable and concocted] THEORY (not fact) of evolution (sometimes frankly renamed evilution and worse than myth or fable) can never be considered "science" because it is inherently illogical and blatantly foolish as blattered by self-authoritarians who dishonestly and deceptively purport it as true and as bonafide science. To arrogantly or subtly presume (not assume) that the Scriptural GENESIS record is a lie, false, and incorrect, that what exists and has obviously originated had no Originator, that existed things became existent by themselves from themselves, is utter nonsense and deplorable nondeniable insanity....well-deserving relentless ridicule and aversion. Therefore, evolution is not only never and not science nor true science, it is a despicable and ludicrous irreligious superstition never worthy of consideration in either public or private-school educational instruction.
There are an infinite number of ways to say and do things wrong, but - ultimately - only one way to do them right. It is customary, then, for knowledgeable scholars to not associate their names nor academic credentials with colleges or universities (and professors within such) who assert nontruthful and anti-rational heresy of evolution, and for no reputable financial benefactor to apportion any funding to promote impoverishing evolutionary ridiculousness.
