'Creationism banned from "free schools" in Britain'
Im not sure i agree with this, but then i dont agree with much in government, as somone else said, 'those who can, teach, those who cant, create and inforce laws about teaching'
If i were king, Creationism would be taught for maby half a day, and then the children would be given a big box of resources and asked to debate and disprove it. Creationism stays in the curriculum, the kids get a foundation of understanding about the practicalities of the scientific method, and they are encouraged to perhaps challenge some other theories - therefore engaging in science as a activity, rather then just a heap of facts.
not that any government would stand for teaching children to challenge the stasis quo, but im also unlikely to be king either.
