Thank you for completely proving my point about believers completely ignoring what the non-believers say.  Allow me to repeat myself.

Quote
[That] is merely what you believe.  There is no evidence for creation.  None.  At all.  "Well it couldn't have happened any other way!" isn't evidence.  Making that claim is no different than saying "I haven't figured it out...therefore, God did it!"  If you haven't found your answer, you keep looking.

Besides, who's to say that YOUR god is the real god?

Its not about snubbing "our creator."  Its about questioning the EXISTENCE of a creator.  Its about opening your mind to the POSSIBILITY that you might be wrong.  You need to do yourself a major favor and go read the book "The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins.  I mean it.  Do it now.  You can order a used copy from Amazon.com for $9 including shipping, or go get it from your local library.

Of course, I know you won't.  You're too close-minded.  Instead of listening to logic and reason, you'll just be offended.

*slaps head*

After my last post, everything I stated came true. Again.

Quote
As far as whether God should be included in schools or not, it's a touchy subject, and if done right, could work.

No.

Quote
Don't teach religion in schools.  Teach ABOUT religion.  Handle it the same way we handle Greek Mythology.  Don't say "God created you."  Instead, say "Christians believe that a god created you."  There's a huge difference.

Yes!

Any religion taught in a school should have equal time spend on it as another. The best idea would be leave it out until it is incorperated in a World History class. :BangHead:

God, any and every definition and understanding of, most definately belongs in our public schools. Our elected officials have dropped the ball.

I agree

Allah as well?  Zeus?  Krishna?  Helios?  Gaia?  Iris?  Anat?  Lotan?  Reseph?  Eostre?  Geat?  Tiw?

Should I continue?

I agree with God in our Public Schools. I think our society has taken out of school and life in general those things that were sacred. Look at where we are NOW :dontknow:
