Nevermind Teaching the Controversy... Another Reason NOT to Teach Evolution? What?!


Hello Dr. Palmer!  Here is another article on the whole "Teaaching evolution in the classroom" debate. In this article they touch a very little bit on the religious aspect of why evolution should not be taught in classrooms, which I thought was interesting. The principal of this particular school gave different reasons as to why he thinks evolution should not be taugh in his school such as thinking it's too complex or for little kids to think about or for teachers to properly convey to youth. Another reason was that they thought it was too "brutal" for the little kids because things had to die in order for us to be around. Like I said just very interesting to see other reasons (some are a huge stretch in my opinion...) that are though up to NOT teach evolution in schools. Here is the link!
