What better way to teach critical thinking skills than to give students scientific evidence on both sides of the origins issue and have them justify their conclusions without involving religious views. Teaching only one side of a scientific controversy amounts to indoctrination - telling students what to think. Instead, let's teach them how to think.
Evolution is a theory without a mechanism.
The research conducted by the Creation-Science Research Center has demonstrated that the results of evolutionary interpretations of science data result in the widespread breakdown of law and order. This cause and effect stems from the moral decay of mental health and loss of sense of well-being on the part of those involved with this belief system, i.e. divorce, abortion, and rampant venereal disease. There are no transitional forms in the fossil record, anywhere, including humans. The whole fossil record is an embarassment to evolutionists. The incipient structure problem refutes natural selection.
