Evolution and Creationism Ryan Burns English 250 Section RM

The issue Two conflicting world views Faith versus science Which should be taught in school? Where should each be taught?

Evolution argument Establishment clause of the US Constitution Basis of creationism is faith, not science

Creationism argument Free exercise clause of the US Constitution Differences in opinion on the origins of life

Errors with the arguments Both sides only have partially valid points Science doesn’t care about opinions Teaching religion in schools doesn’t always violate the Establishment clause The free exercise clause has limits

Solution Separate subjects, separate classes Keep biology intact Create religious studies classes in public schools
