PD: Including creationism in public school curriculum part of well-rounded education.

3. Other than wasting valuable school time....

... teaching about Creationism could help, and not hurt, the students learn critical thinking and the scientific method.

I taught High School for 30 years, and my students (admittedly, middle class achievers for the most part) would have eaten Creationism alive!

Kids aren't dumb, and if you tell them that science is always finding new discoveries and is open to change with new data, whereas Creationism - and other non-science always falls back on the "God's Magic Mystery", it could really turn into a learning experience!

Waste of time, but I believe kids would learn more than the anti-science folks think they will.
