Re: What's to teach ?
Let the majority define science.
The majority of what, scientists? They already have and evolution is science and creation/ID is not.

Re: What's to teach ?
Well the majority of people are ignorant of most things, why the heck would you want them to vote on something as important as science. What next, do you let everyone vote on what Islam is or what Judaism is? How about we vote on what Christianity is as it appears that those darn Christians just can't seem to decide on their own! I mean really, how come there are baptists, catholics, methodist, espicopelians (sp?), protestants, LDS, seventh day adventists, etc ? There should only be one type of Christianity, right?!

Re: What's to teach ?
What elitist nonsense.
Nope! It really is true that most people are ignorant or misinformed, especially when it comes to science. You still don't seem to understand that science doesn't vote on facts. Should we vot to make pi=3 because it's easier to remember? No, because that would just be stupid, like voting on whether or not evolution is science.
