        @neiltyson If anything, it's only ok as a history or sociology subject in public schools.

        @TheTrekNerd @CheesyG That's my point. Churches teach 1 religion: theirs. No problem with philosophy class teaching (not preaching) abt all.

        @neiltyson seems a bit one-sided too, doesn't it? Maybe also adding science to religion classes might make it more of a fair trade...

        @PPolish @neiltyson why?? A belief has nothing to do the evolution of a species. Animals dont believe in God, yet they have evolved.
