If someone wants to refuse to accept science, that is fine, and anyone can have his/her faith; but don't confuse "belief" with "science". Public schools should teach science, not religion. BTW, unless one reads the Bible literally (which some do, of course), the Darwinian principles are quite compatible with Scripture. Unless you believe that the world was created in six twenty-four hour days. Best, Bob ********************************************** Robert A. Fink, M. D., F.A.C.S., P.
