Yes, many believe it does. For example Saudi Arabia doesn't teach it at all , in fact it is illegal to teach it.
whether a state can ban the teaching of evolution in public schools
teach about Darwin's theory of evolution
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.
Theory of evolution refers to animals and plants evolution along the time. Language evolution is another issue, not entirely related to the theory of evolution. It follows the theory of evolution on some way but it is related to culture evolution, not to the physical attributes evolution.
no they are not allowed to teach evolution beecaus it just isnt right
Evolution is an observed and observable fact. The theory of evolution by natural selection explains many things about evolution. The theory generates testable hypothesis, as any good theory does. Remember, theory is the highest concept in science.
There are many books that describe the theory of evolution. For example, there is a book called Evolution: The Remarkable History of a Scientific Theory.
The scientific movement accepts the Theory of Evolution. The Theory is the basis for the science of biology.
