Creationism is not considered a science because it is based on religious beliefs rather than empirical evidence and the scientific method. Science relies on observable data, experimentation, and peer review to support its claims, while creationism is rooted in faith and does not follow the same rigorous scientific standards.

Creationism is not taught in science classes because it is not supported by any scientific evidence whatsoever. It makes no verifiable predictions. It also has no practical application.


Do you think that Evolution and Creationism should be taught in school?

Evolution is a widely accepted scientific theory supported by extensive evidence, and should be taught in science classes. Creationism, however, is based on religious beliefs and is not supported by scientific evidence, so it is not appropriate to be taught in a science classroom. It may be more suitable for discussion in courses on religion or philosophy.

Can evolution and creationism be taught in the classroom?

They can both be taught in classrooms. However creationism cannot be taught as if it were scientifically verifiable fact in public schools, as it is not science, and the US constitution prohibits federal or state funded (educational) institutions promoting religion. So if creationism is taught in public school, then it must be taught in comparative religion or philosophy classes, and not in biology classes.
