I think it is wrong to teach evolution, abiogenisis and big bang as facts in school. Whats even worse is that most science books doesn't even mention that the odds for abiogenisis is impossible.
The reason I think the students should study the evidences for themselves is that -
* The recreations of human apes are very unsure (see piltdown neanderthal nebraska Archapitetus ) So instead students should see the fossils we have in the book. So they can study the fossils for themselves.
* Most evolutionist don't consider the "irreducible complexity argument " as valid because "any god that could design us must be even more complex." Students should get to study life and the universe from 100 percent neutral books and then later on decide if they think this argument is valid or not.
* Abiogenisis and Big Bang should really not be taught in science class rooms at all. I mean mostly because the odds for that happening are so immensely low that it will never happen. But students will get to study the different variations of abiogenisis and the big bang hypothesis and then later on decide if its even worth considering.
* Instead of reading that the fossils shows a detailed chain of life evolving, They should get to study the recreations themselves and believe if they think this is plausible.
Basically, I think it is a shame that evolution/big Bang/abiogenisis is being taught as a fact in school. It should be taught but only as a hypothesis. The students should without previously being taught by their teacher that evolution is scientific. Get to study the evidence for themselves.
Only fools believe without studying. All common hypotheses about the origin of life/universe should be taught along side with the evidence. Including Darwinism Theistic evolution Creationism the Korans view the hinduistic view and FSM.
I think the "evidence" for teaching Darwinism as a fact is invalid. And it is wrong to tell students it is a scientific fact since the students might disagree if they studied the evidences in advance.

Edited by Adminnemooseus, : Fix topic title ("themselves", not "themselfs"). Yes, I know that English isn't your primary language.

Re: So, which facts are the ones you want "students to study the evidence themselves"?
There are still alot of debattes going on about EvC so it should not be called a scientiffic fact.
Abiogenisis should not be taught as all. Even as it is mathematicly compleatly impossibel scientist still believes in it.
Religius beliefs ? So believing in abiogenisis or big bang isnt religius ?
