At any rate, since creationism cannot be backed up by credible evidence, it has no place in any science class.
What does creationism have to do with this thread?

The thread is about evolution and its place in public schools.

It is incumbent on you, if you think that evolution should be taught in public schools, to defend its validity, which no one has yet to do adequately.

I agree 100% with the bolded - and think the same thing about evolution.

I can't believe we keep having this debate here in America. It would be laughed at in most European countries.

I am well aquainted with the universal law of gravitation, but just because something is called a law does not make it so.

Gravity remains a theory.

Do you not understand that there are no laws in science - only theories?

Theory is the highest one can reach in science.

You really ought to learn the difference between a scientific theory and the way that the word is often used in everday language.

Everything. The only reason this thread exists is because of creationists and creationism.
