MomsTalk Q&A: Creationism in Schools?

Q: Should creationism be taught in public schools? Is it acceptable for public school Biology teachers to share the idea that the universe could have been created by God, along with teaching Darwin's theories of evolution? Or should the lines between church and state (public schools) be firmly drawn and strictly adhered to? Should religion in any form be kept out of the classroom?

This topic made headlines recently in the where a Biology teacher was nearly fired for including creationism in his lessons. According to the U.S. Supreme Court, this violates students’ first amendment rights. What do you think?
