Church/state separation mandates will always keep that from happening here. The real debate is whether to teach evolution in schools or to teach nothing at all regarding that subject.

LIES! I arrived in a Christmas cracker and that's the end of it. As Blackadder himself puts it:
One massively disappointing bang and the novelty soon wore off.
My mother swears she found me under a cabbage leaf in the garden. Does explain the smell I suppose.
Evolution is proven and the cornerstone for biology: It's quite obvious it should be mandatory to be taught.
I think this may have been placed a little to strongly.
Just because Zarkes said it, that doesn't make it one of his screwed up, word vomit puzzles you have to figure out (not offence Zarko). I found that pretty legible...
Godwin's Law: As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of Nazi or Hitler spontaneously materialising and enacting systematic genocide against the poster approaches one.
good job :sly:

Actaual question here: Wasn't it the theory of evolution? As in it has yet to be proved?
As always, Arseface. I am not debating wether it happened or not, as I agree with you people in the sense that it DID happen. I am just saying that it is still regarded as a theory.
First: It's the only real "theory" we have as to how we came about, so there's no point in bringing up that it's "unproven", when it's the best thing we've got regardless. There are no other contenders to replace evolution with.
Second: Theory =/= unproven. Gravity is a theory. Evolution has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Theory is the strongest scientific term you'll encounter outside the realm of mathematics. Evolution will never be regarded as anything "higher" than a theory. Neither will gravity. The only way theory would ever mean anything close to unproven is in the sense that you can't prove anything because truth is subjective.
And sorry I was blunt before. I really get annoyed when people bring this up.
As a Christian, I believe many other Christians treat the bible as a history book, rather than a guideline and life lesson.
I believe in God and evolution... funny how that works. Everything stems from a common origin, even if the origin itself is debatable.

I'd also like to just clarify that I'm not hating on religion. Believe what you want. I just don't like the idea that school systems would take evolution out of the syllabus, or replace it with intelligent design just because of religion driven lobbying.
Thank you. This was the answer I was looking for when I wrote:
Even thought then I don't understand why people refer to gravity as a law, instead of a theory.
