CREATION OR EVOLUTION TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS?

This picture is of my 18 year old son Nicholas (left) and one of my students, Pete McClain. Both boys will be heading to East Tennessee State University this fall, and I cannot tell you how proud I am of Nicholas and the joy he has brought to our family.

The first plank of the Humanist Manifesto: "Religious humanists regard the universe as self-existing and not created."
The second plank states: "Humanism believes that man is a part of nature and that he has emerged as a result of a continuous process."


Humanism reigns in public school teaching. Why? The American Civil Liberties Union (A.C.L.U.) states that Creation is religious, and the government should not assist religion at all.

Yet, here is a quote to consider:

"In fact, evolution became in a sense a scientific religion; almost all scientists have accepted it, and many are prepared to 'bend' their observations to fit with it." (H. S. Lipson, FRS, Professor of Physics, University of Manchester, UK, "A Physicist Looks at Evolution", Physics Bulletin, vol. 31, May 1980, pg. 138).

You might also present this to your evolutionary-minded friend:

Sir Arthur Keith, a famous British evolutionary anthropologist and anatomist, confesses, "Evolution is unproved and unprovable. We believe it only because the only alternative is special creation, and that is unthinkable."
