If this type of youth is the future of America, we are so royally screwed. These are high school students who think evolution is still a theory and ask such stupid, questions such as, "how can like an African-American person evolve from a white person". These are some sad, ignorant kids that the educational system (and their parents) have failed.

@Dr.Hykal - You're right, it would be just a theory without little things like DNA and fossil records ;)

"Cultural Myth Inbreeding" I never heard that used before but you're absolutely right!

@Anna All I can say is Yeah...........okay. If your mind is made up the earth is 6,000 years old, why on earth would I let little things like scientific evidence or facts take it away from you?

Interesting Topics, but for me I believe there's a creator... ...

Excellent article and still a very hot topic for a growing discussion. I believe in evolution and creation but not in the way many here might see it to be. The bible states the earth is only a little over six thousand years old, which in turn would make it the youngest planet in the already known multi universes. However we have fossils million of years old! Carbon dating is also extremely accurate within 50 thousand years... So much for the bible... Creation does exist though...We live with in multiple realities which we create for ourselves... Just my humble opinion.

Great thoughts Sheri! animals and all life forms are following evolution even today and it's completely traceable through DNA changes. I was mostly stunned the teacher was so conflicted. Science won't confirm anything in the bible or the existence of God but if someone is a believer - having some solid facts shouldn't take that away from them either.

MIchael - There are much more accurate ways to date that have been developed that are tons more accurate than carbon dating. You're right though, even if carbon dating is only accurate to within 50,000 years...well so much for that book.

Oh no! Please American friends don`t let this continue! No reason to fight, but plenty of reasons to teach children facts and let them derive their own responses. We have a responsiblity here!

Hi Jessica! I wondered where you had been! Thanks for tossing in your thoughts. When Creationism is being taught in schools at all I have to turn to a quote I heard , You are entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts.". And I don't care how they package it - it's not a proven fact God made anything besides a bunch of people on TBN really wealthy and oh yeah, that little snafu called the "Crusades"....

@matt - i would never "just believe it" especially when empirical scientific evidence points in quite the opposite direction.
