"I have been on the local board of education for 2 years now and have never heard the phrase `` Young Earth Creationists `` in any official capacity , nor has anybody ever suggested that it be taught ."
"Of course not . That battle has already been lost . Creationism is religion and it can not be taught in a science class , even when it is called `` creation science `` and the data is distorted and mininterpreted . The most recent attempt by creationists in Kansas on the State Board ( and yes , they were YECs ) was to eliminate all requirements to teach evolution , and all references to an old earth from all curriculum standards ."
