C1ay Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 The government has announced that it will publish guidance for schools on how creationism and intelligent design relate to science teaching, and has reiterated that it sees no place for either on the science curriculum. It has also defined "Intelligent Design", the idea that life is too complex to have arisen without the guiding hand of a greater intelligence, as a religion, along with "creationism". Responding to a petition on the Number 10 ePetitions site, the government said: "The Government is aware that a number of concerns have been raised in the media and elsewhere as to whether creationism and intelligent design have a place in science lessons. The Government is clear that creationism and intelligent design are not part of the science National Curriculum programmes of study and should not be taught as science. " More at The Register....

tmaromine Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I guess we have to get rid of Bush first... And then we better get some non religious biased realistic president that is a person who <i>should</i> be painted as the face of the USA, and not some person that 'has' to be. Lucky Europeans.
