This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Evolution to be made clear that it is a theory and not taught in science lessons as fact
More details
Stop teaching Evolution as a fact in school and make it clear that Evolution is not a proven science but is in fact a Theory!
Through my education I was never taught evolution as a theory but as if it was a fact. There were never any discussions on the flaws of evolution! Only ever stressed on the parts such as natural selection. Where as in RE religious beliefs were taught as beliefs and gave both the positives and negatives!! How can young people decide if they are only ever given half of one story!
