Petition Evolution is a Theory and should be taught as one, teach our children how to think not what to think...

More details

With the introduction of Evolution into the primary years curriculum, I believe it should be stressed that Evolution is a theory and not fact...The petition is to ensure that Teachers inform our children of this and on this subject try to teach Children to make informed choices as to the theory they choose to believe...For this to happen means that children must be exposed to other theories and the same amount of effort put into teaching those, the other Theories I would put forward are those of 'Intelligent Design', and 'Creationism'...I believe that we should be teaching our Children how to think, not restricting them and stunting there exploration of science and the mysteries of the universe by telling them what to Think..
