What I'm finding interesting is the fact that the individuals countering science with their beliefs are the ones saying evolution shouldn't be taught.

If they believed that strongly in the concept wouldn't they want every opportunity to disprove evolution?

My computer is now broken, since I'm a biologist and cannot fathom religious beliefs being used to counter carbon dating, along with the assertion that children should be allowed to choose what they want to learn about. These two things combined cause me to beat my head against the keyboard.
