Creation Vs Evolution

Interesting Article on NY Times on Creationism versus Evolution (Or Intelligent Design vs Darwinism etc.).

Link

Mr Bush believes intelligent design should be taught along side with the theory of evolution. The USA is now split on this issue. I really wonder what Singaporeans thoughts are regarding this. In Singapore, I'd suppose it won't be as simple as teaching about Genesis from the Bible alongside the biology textbooks. To be fair to all the races and religions, we probably have to teach Taoism, Hinduism etc. and all their theories as well.

Another reason why US is even more divided under the Bush Administration.

I'm like, does this guy even know what he's talking about?

he believes since both are just theories, both should be taught to the students. Then creationism shouldn't be exlcusive to the Bible only right? I mean there are other religions with their own theory of how the earth came to be - should they all be taught too?
