Specop007, people being gay is a reality that is scientifically observable so it should be taught in either biology or sociology (both sciences). Please demonstrate the same level of observable and verifiable evidence/proof of creationism/god and you can have it introduced into science class as well.
Hey, its verifiable and statistically proven that african americans commit more crimes. Is that talked about? Its also NOT known what will happen when we slam 2 particles together, and yet we try to find out.
The point is, just because something is proven doesnt mean its taught, and just because something is not proven does not mean it should not be discussed. If that were the case we would still be stuck thinking the world was flat..... And by your own post, YOU dont even know where homosexuality should be taught. Should i then assume since we do not yet know with 100% accuracy that it should not be taught at all?
Please note I'm not saying creationism should be taught to the exclusion of evolution. I'm simply saying that as rational adults it seems awfully irrational to say "Well, THIS is proven so teach it but THAT is unproven so do not teach it". Shall we not teach anything that is not yet proven? As I said earlier, that would certainly cut down on the curriculum quite a bit.
Oh, and please show evidence that Islam is being forced/taught in PUBLIC schools (not religious-based schools because if that is your basis, then you have to disband all christian schools also).
Kthxbye!
Already linked earlier, and yes it was public schools. Obviously one would be quite foolish to complain about religious teachings in a religious school.....
