      @chrisabraham Indeed, Catholic schools have always been quite good about the scripture/science line-in-the-sand over the years.

          @neiltyson @chrisabraham My Catholic schools taught evolution and science without reference to religion. Religion class was separate.

          @neiltyson @chrisabraham I can provide additional anecdotal evidence to support that statement. Jesus wasn't present in my chem class.
