The right to teach evolution in schools

There is NO Federal Mandate to teach Evolution. There is no Federal mandate to teach algebra, or chemistry or Latin, either. It is merely a question of being well-read and in-step with the 21st century. We do not teach phrenology in psychology; We do not teach phlogiston in Chemistry; and we should not teach intelligent design as an "alternative" to evolution. "Evolution" is a demonstration of a collection of known scientifically verifiable facts. Evolution does NOT discredit belief in God; in fact, evolution makes NO comments about the sanctity of life or the existence of powers beyond our own. Attempting to condemn evolution as a theory as an attack on religion or belief is as meaningful as eating meat on Friday, instead of Fish.
