Rejected petition Teach Evolution & Creationism & Informed Choice

More details

In modern educational establishments, faith based or not, it should be mandatory that evolution is taught in order to provide a rich understanding of theories in Biology. It is also highly relevant that the population understand and experience the basis for religious belief systems alongside evolutionist belief systems.

Finding an English educated person who has made an informed choice, who has examined and validated the assumptions they have made to reach that choice is unfortunately rare.

Instead the common option is choose to trust, and then hang vigorously onto opinions of people they look up to, rather than gain a solid and simple understanding of what they actually believe.
