If science is the study of our physical world, and God created the physical world, then science is the study of what God created. If it's true, it should be taught in every class and especially science class as the underlying principle in what is being studied. (I don't really know what Creationism with a C is, so I simply assume it means God created everything.)
Maybe an example would help clarify what I mean. When Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, he based its underlying justifications on the benevolence of man's Creator. The declaration was going to be politically valid whether or not Jefferson could prove that man's Creator actually did give men certain rights. But to leave God out of it would have removed the underlying principle of his arguments
I don't think it's a good idea for Creationism to be the subject of any class that is not a religious class, but I think if it's true then it should be given place in every setting in and outside of school. To ignore such a profound truth would be ridiculous. And if it is not true, then to admit in a classroom such a myth would be equally ridiculous. Unfortunately, since many people are not convinced one way or another, and public schools funded with public money makes a general and possibly necessary mess of things, then a half-decision is made to neither admit its truth nor deny its truth. The result is confusion :confused:
