Teach the controversy? What controversy? EducationGuardian.co.uk - Scientists rally to attack creationist schooling.

The statement was drafted by members of the Inter Academy Panel on International Issues, a global network consisting of 92 science academies. It points out that “within science courses taught in certain public systems of education, scientific evidence, data, and testable theories about the origins and evolution of life on Earth are being concealed, denied, or confused with theories not testable by science”.

It went on: “We urge decision makers, teachers, and parents to educate all children about the methods and discoveries of science and foster an understanding of the science of nature. Knowledge of the natural world in which they live empowers people to meet human needs and protect the planet.”

There is no controversy to teach.

Given the Questioner is unlikely to be back, I will save my post re: Ball Lightning.

Just another bridge?

I’d rather be liberal than illiberal.
I’d rather be progressive than conservative.
