Brunswick school board to consider creationism teaching

"The law says we can't have Bibles in schools, but we can have evolution, of the atheists."

Wait, evolution is of the atheists? No. Evolution is of every living being on planet Earth, and it's provably billions of years old. No amount of belief or lack of belief in invisible friends will change these facts.

Empirical facts are what we teach in science classes. You can teach kids whatever you want on your own time or in other classes. For instance, the Bible is an influential compendium of books and letters which should be taught in literature classes. In particular the book of Genesis is nothing if not allegorical, and has always belonged alongside Aesop's fables and Greek mythology.

What you do with it in churches, synagogues, mosques, Bible and Torah studies, or Sunday and Sabbath school is something else entirely, and none of my business.
